Google Meet Integration
Google Meet integration lets you conduct Google Meet meetings with students. You can set up and start meetings for your courses. You also have the feature to send Google Meeting invitations to enrolled students.
To connect with Google Meet, you need to first create Google Credentials. You can do that by visiting Google Developer Console.
From the top left corner, select a project to use for credentials. If you do not have a project created, please follow along. If you have a project already, please skip to Step 3.
Give the project a name, and if needed, select an organization.
After creating it, it will be selected as your project. From the Dashboard, click on Enable APIs and Services at the top. Then, from the search field that appears, search for Google Calendar API.
Enable Google Calendar API for this project.
Then, from the Google Calendar API dashboard, click on create credentials.
From data type, select User data, and then click done.
In the OAuth Consent Screen section name your app and add a developer contact email.
After that, you can select the OAuth Client ID. Go ahead and select Web application as your application type from this drop down.
From there, you will have to fill out some necessary information for authentication.
After creating the credentials, you can then download the JSON file from the credentials dashboard. Simply click on the download icon to continue.
Here you will find a section to upload your JSON file, go ahead and upload the file. Once uploaded it will authenticate your website with the API credentials.
Click on Load Credentials, and you will be met with the screen shown below.
Go ahead and select the Email address you want to add and allow all the permissions to have Agaram.LK set up with Google Meet.
That’s it! You are done with the integration setup.
To create a meeting, there are two ways. You can create a meeting for a lesson under topics for a course in the Agaram.LK course builder. Alternatively, you can find a new Google Meet section in the Agaram.LK course builder.
Clicking on Create a Google Meet will bring up a pop up where you can configure the details of your meeting.
You can find a list of all the active meetings you have set up in Google Meet > Active Meetings. You can also edit the meetings from this page.
You can find these settings on the Settings tab of Google Meet.
Default Timezone: Set the default timezone that will be set for your meetings. You can change this for individual meetings when setting up a new meeting.
Default Reminder Time: Set a default reminder time for participants to get an email notification.
Set Default Event Status: Set a default status for Google Meet event.
Send Updates: Select how to send notifications about the creation of the new event. Note that some emails might still be sent.
Transparency: Select if the events block time on the calendar by default.
Visibility: Set the default visibility of the event.
Should the need arise, you can also invalidate your current Google Meet credential using the Reset Credential button.
To find this button, head over to Google Meet > Set API. After clicking on Reset Credential, your currently connected Meet Account will get invalidated.
