We’re making it easier to manage calendar assignments for your Meet hardware devices. You can now assign or unassign Google Calendars to your Meet hardware devices in bulk by uploading a CSV file. For organizations with a large number of devices, this eliminates the need to assign calendars one by one, saving you significant time and administrative effort.

When preparing your CSV file, please keep the following in mind:
- To unassign a calendar from a device, simply leave the assignedCalendarResourceEmail cell for that device’s row empty.
- While a personal calendar can be assigned to multiple devices, a room calendar resource can only be assigned to one device at a time. To move a calendar resource to a new device using CSV, you must first perform a CSV upload to unassign it, and then a second CSV upload to assign it to the new device.
Getting started
- Admins: To use this feature, you’ll need the “Manage calendar assignment” privilege. Without this privilege, any calendar updates in your upload will fail, though other changes (like settings and organizational unit updates) may still be applied. Visit the Help Center to learn more about assigning a Google Calendar to Meet hardware and bulk updating Meet hardware settings.
- End users: There is no end user impact or action required.
