Integrating via OAuth

This integration method is used for non-GCP service accounts. This is the simplest and the recommended approach to integrating with Google Meet.

  1. You can first create a Google account with a generic email (e.g. [email protected]).
  2. Then log into that Google account on your browser.
  3. Add [email protected]as a member in your Rootly organization.
  4. Follow the instructions below to integrate as [email protected].

Click on Setup to start the integration process. You'll be prompted to select a Google account.
