New Google Meet links when changing recurrence or start time of recurring Calendar events

What’s happening

To create a more consistent and secure meeting experience, we're changing what happens when you edit recurring Google Calendar events. Previously, when users modified the start time or recurrence of recurring events and applied the change to "This and following events," the remaining events used the original Google Meet link.

Moving forward, when users modify the start time or recurrence of a recurring event for "This and following events," the remaining events will automatically generate a new, unique Meet link. The original event series will keep the original Meet link. All properties of the Meet conference (for example the host, cohosts, access restriction, recording) are preserved for both Meet links.

This change ensures each new recurring event series gets its own distinct and secure Meet link, which prevents the unintentional reuse of meeting links across separate Calendar events. This is one of multiple updates we’re making to create a more reliable experience for using Meet with Calendar events.
