Google Meet Integration with 1:1 meetings

Overview

Google Meet integration in Keka allows employees to schedule 1:1 meetings with auto-generated video call links. This makes virtual conversations more seamless, whether you're discussing performance, goals, or feedback.

Admins enable the integration, and employees can then link their Google accounts to use Google Meet directly within the 1:1 Meetings module.
