"Meet" - Video Conferencing adding Team Members

[SOTASOTA]

I want to start a "Meet" - Video Conferencing and simply add my Team Members.
There does not seem to be an easy way to do this!

Once I start the Video Meet Conference, if I "Add Participants" it does everything but give me the option to simply choose my Team Members (Ext. 102, 107, etc.).

Now, on Team panel, if I click the ellipsis, I see the option to "Video Conference" for that one member only. This action starts a new Web Meeting. Again, why can I not simply add the Team Members that I want?

Am I missing something?

Help please!

Hi @SOTASOTA,

In order to easily add participants in the a Video Conference, you will have to first create the meeting first and choose one of the dropdown options from 'Select email / calendar to add to' section.
If you want to invite people based on their extension, you can select the 'Email/Legacy(No RSVP)' option.




Keep in mind though, that the extensions must have an email address configured in order to appear and be added, as the invite for the meeting is being sent to their email address.
They will have then click on the link that they received and join the Web Meeting.

Got it!!!! Thanks so much!
It sure would be nice not having to jump through hoops to set up a video meeting. It would be great if it were like Skype where you simply add the team members in and click Start. Just hoping! We are trying to more off Skype, but Skype is so simple and easy to use. Hmmm!
