Meeting Invitations

When a meeting is created, the platform sends invitations to all participants through their preferred channels. This article explains what's sent, how to customise the message, and how to handle external (non-registered) attendees.

What's in an Invitation

  • Subject line: “You're invited: Meeting title”.
  • The host's name and a one-line description.
  • Start time in the recipient's preferred timezone.
  • A unique join link (single-use for guests, persistent for registered users).
  • An attached ICS file so the recipient can add the meeting to their calendar.

Customising the Template

The invitation uses the email template named meeting_invitation. Edit it in Site Settings → Communication → Email Templates to change the wording, add your logo, or include branded footer links.

External Participants

You can invite people who do not have a user account by entering their email address. They receive an invitation with a guest join link — no account creation required.

Note: Guest links can be configured single-use (consumed when the meeting is joined) or multi-use (e.g. for a webinar). Choose single-use whenever the meeting handles confidential material.

Example Workflows

  • Internal team meeting: Persistent links, host can rejoin after dropping off.
  • Customer onboarding call: Customer is added as a registered guest user so future meetings reuse the same identity.
  • Webinar: 500 invitees by CSV import, each gets a unique single-use link, attendance is tracked per invitation.
