Question

Draft outlook calendar meeting is visible in zoom meetings list

When users create an outlook meeting and saves it "as draft" the meeting is appearing within others zoom meetings lists.

 

Is this a bug or is there something which we can do to stop this from happening.

We are experiencing the same behavior. Is Zoom going to address this?

Please fix this. The only work around I've found is to disable automatic Zoom meetings in Outlook and instead add them manually. This is tedious and fraught with potential errors. Why is there no response from Zoom on this?

Please fix this zoom! This is extremely annoying and confusing to have meetings popping up in zoom with no corresponding outlook request simply because someone is drafting a meeting request that has yet to be sent.  Also super annoying when drafting one for others. I have also found that if a draft is saved and then the time is altered and sent that 2 meeting invites for the same meeting appear in your zoom schedule, one for the draft and the other for the meeting that was actually sent.

I see there is still no response from Zoom on this bug.

 

I discovered the bug last month after I created a draft with 3 C level attendees and received an angry text asking why I wasn't on the meeting.  You can guess the fun I had since I wasn't prepared to present to this group yet.  Zoom, fix this and stop making your clients look bad.

This likely is a bug in the Outlook integration, you can try reinstalling the calendar integration for Office 365. If the issue persists there is a Zoom app, Salepager, that lets you send Outlook calendar invites that integrate with your Outlook calendar.
