Feature Request: Select existing Proton Meet Rooms when creating a Calendar event
Summary
When creating a new calendar event, I'd like to be able to select from my existing Proton Meet Rooms as the meeting location, rather than only being able to generate a brand-new Proton Meet link.
Current Behaviour
In Proton Calendar's event creation dialog, the only Proton Meet integration available is "Add Proton Meet conferencing", which generates a fresh, one-off meeting link for that specific event.
Meanwhile, Proton Meet offers reusable Rooms (both a personal meeting room and custom rooms you can create under "My rooms"), each with a permanent link. However, these Rooms are not surfaced anywhere in the Calendar event creation flow.
The Problem
If I want to use an existing Room for a scheduled event, my only options are:
- Use "Add Proton Meet conferencing" – but this creates a disposable link rather than reusing my Room, meaning the meeting won't be accessible via the permanent Room link I've already shared with people.
- Manually copy the Room link from Proton Meet and paste it into the Location field as plain text – but this loses the native "Join with Proton Meet" button that invitees see when the link is added through the proper conferencing integration.
Neither option is ideal. The first ignores the Rooms I've deliberately set up, and the second degrades the experience for invitees.
Related Feature Request
I discovered this existing suggestion on UserVoice:
While that touches on a related area, I think it's addressing a slightly different need. My focus here is specifically on surfacing your existing Rooms from the Calendar event picker itself, rather than allowing manual pasting of arbitrary custom Meet links.
Proposed Solution
Add a room picker within the Calendar event creation dialog that surfaces the user's existing Proton Meet Rooms (personal room and any custom rooms), alongside the current "generate new link" option. Selecting a Room would insert its permanent link as the conferencing URL, preserving the full "Join with Proton Meet" experience in calendar invitations.
Ideally, it would also be possible to create a new Room inline from the event creation dialog, but even just being able to select existing Rooms would resolve the core issue.
Why This Matters
Rooms are a great feature for recurring meetings, team-specific spaces, and persistent links. But without Calendar integration, they exist in a silo – you can only really use them for ad-hoc, unscheduled calls. Bridging this gap would make the Rooms feature far more powerful and reduce friction for anyone scheduling recurring meetings.
