Overview

For online Events you can generate a Google Meet link without leaving SuperPath. The link is created against your connected Google Calendar and dropped straight into the Event's location field, so attendees have somewhere to join.

You do this in the Event editor, on the Event's Details tab. To open it, go to Events in the left-hand menu and click the Event you want to edit.

Before you start

Generating a Meet link relies on your own Google Calendar being connected to SuperPath. If it isn't connected, the generate control won't appear next to the location field.

To connect it, follow How to connect Google Calendar. Once connected, come back to the Event and generate the link.

How to generate the link

1. Open the Event and find the location field (labelled Add a location (optional)).
2. Click the video-camera button next to the field (Generate Google Meet Link).
3. Wait a moment while SuperPath creates the link — it then appears in the location field.

Note: The link is created using your Google account. Behind the scenes SuperPath briefly creates and removes a Meet-enabled entry on your primary Google Calendar to mint the link, then places the link in the Event's location.

Saving your changes

The generated link is placed in the location field but isn't final until you save.

1. Generate the link so it appears in the location field.
2. In the Unsaved changes bar at the top of the page, click Save.
3. To undo, click Discard and confirm.

Things to keep in mind

• The Generate Google Meet Link button only appears when your own Google Calendar is connected.
• The link is written into the location field — you can edit or replace it like any other location text.
• As with other details, the change is staged until you click Save.

FAQs

Why can't I see the Generate Google Meet Link button?
It only shows when your Google Calendar is connected. See How to connect Google Calendar.

Where does the link end up?
In the Event's location field, so attendees can join from there.

Whose Google account is used?
Your own connected Google account is used to generate the link.

Who can do this

Owners, Admins, Managers, Content Managers and Instructors can edit an Event and generate a Meet link, provided their own Google Calendar is connected. People Managers, Employees and Restricted users cannot edit Events. Connecting Google Calendar is done per user on your own profile — see How to connect Google Calendar.
