Scheduling a conference

Pressing the Schedule button will bring up the following screen.

Give your scheduled conference a name. The name will appear in the email invite sent to participants. 

Select the date you would like the meeting to be held on.

Enter the start time and duration.

Using the dropdown menu, you can choose if you want the conference to be a private or public meeting. 

Private access: This will only allow access to invited guests. They will need to log in with their email addresses. 

Public access: Will allow anyone with the link to log in.

In the Notes section, you can include a message that will be displayed in the body of the email sent to the participant(s).

You can choose to repeat the conference or leave it to no repeat.

At this point, you can either schedule a conference or continue to add users. Remember, if you set the conference to a private conference, you must invite users.

You can use the search box to find users in the list or click the + plus icon to add the users you want to join.

If you haven’t added any users or want to add more to the conference, you have already created, click ‘invite’ and add the users.

As the event creator, you will receive a confirmation email to confirm the creation of your new conference.

When someone is invited, they will be notified by email, providing details about the conference invitation.
