Managing Meetings

A “meeting” is the scheduled or instant video session record. The Meetings panel lists every past, current and upcoming meeting so administrators can monitor usage and join in if needed.

Meetings list table with columns: Title, Host, Participants, Scheduled For, Duration, Status, and an 'End' action button on active meetings

Creating a Meeting

  1. Click Meetings → New meeting.
  2. Enter a title, pick a start time (or leave blank for “start now”), and invite participants by typing their names.
  3. Optionally attach the meeting to a record — e.g. a booking, a project or a support ticket. The record's page will display the meeting and a join button.
  4. Set advanced options: waiting room, lock-after-start, max participants, recording on/off.
  5. Save — invitations are sent by email and (if enrolled) push notification.

Managing an Active Meeting

  • Join as observer: Admins can drop into any active meeting silently.
  • Mute all: Useful in a webinar setting to mute participants at the start.
  • Remove participant: Eject a misbehaving attendee — they cannot rejoin without an explicit re-invite.
  • End meeting: Closes the session for all participants at once.

Example Scenarios

  • Daily standup: A recurring meeting at 09:00 every weekday, attached to the team's project record.
  • Client review: A one-off meeting attached to the engagement record. The recording is saved against the engagement for the client's reference.
  • Webinar: Max 200 participants, waiting room enabled, all microphones muted on join, host promotes one panellist at a time.
