Disabling the Video Call Default in Google Calendar: Google Apps Admins

on Google Apps

I was recently contacted by one of my Google Apps users, who complained that everytime he created a new event in his Google Calendar, it defaulted to a Video Call. If you are a Google Apps administrator, you can fix this default for your domain in a few quick steps.

Here is what your users may be seeing when they create a new event:
New Event with Video Call



Here is how to fix it:

Login to Manage your Domain and Select "Apps"

Login and Select Apps



Select "Google Apps"

Select Google Apps



Select "Calendar"

Select Calendar



Select "Sharing Settings"

Select Sharing Settings



Uncheck the box by Video Calls

Uncheck the box for Automatically add video calls to events

That is all there is to do.
