How attendees can manage meetings #
Attendees page
Navigate to the dedicated Attendees page on the top menu bar. This presents an active directory of all registered participants and allows you to search and filter through different parameters. From an attendee’s tile you may have a few options on how you would like to connect:
Chat – the speech bubble icon opens a dedicated chat room between you and the recipient.
Request Meeting – the calendar icon takes you to a page where you can schedule time to meet, define the terms of your meeting, and add a personal note. The recipient will receive an email notification prompting them to accept your proposed meeting.
Call – the phone icon opens an instant video chat between you and the recipient(s). The recipients will receive an email notification that you have requested to call. This feature is perfect if you would like instant connection.
Organizers can enable/disable these features under General Settings.
Requesting a meeting
Navigate to the attendees page in the top menu bar and request a meeting from any of the Attendees. 
Alternatively, under My Agenda, you can request a meeting using the calendar button on the upper right corner. 
Fill in all necessary information such as meeting title, date and time, location and even description. After you have created your meetings they will appear here in list form. If you already know who you would like to meet, this is the quickest way to request a meeting.
When you create a new meeting, you can select whether you want all required attendees approval for the meeting to be confirmed, else it will be the default at least two (including host).
Quiet Hours
Attendees can block their unavailable times and set a date and time for ‘quiet hours’. This is a scheduling tool that features minimum notice time for a meeting and availability window. This can be used if the meeting settings is an open meeting slot.
Chat bar
Don’t need to request a meeting but would still like to connect? Use the dedicated chat functionality! You can chat with a specific attendee, or with a group of attendees, by going to the personal tab of your chat bar and selecting create.
How event admins manage meetings #
To utilize the meetings feature, you’re required to firstly enable the Meetings on General Settings > Features and Networking
Once enabled, navigate to the meetings tab under Networking of the console’s side bar.
A meeting is a scheduled live meet or video conference between two or more participants at your event. This meetings section gives you an overview of all scheduled meetings and allows you to define your event’s meeting logic. Remember, for quick meeting stats head to your event Console homepage.
All scheduled meetings will appear in list on this page, in the time zone of your event. Clicking into a meeting shows the meeting details and participants, as well as its status. As an admin, you can create meetings directly from the console between any attendees. Remember, the meeting host starts the meeting so be sure to assign the correct attendee here.
Meeting slots #
To define timeslots attendees can schedule meetings within, click on settings then the meeting slots tab. You can toggle between Open or Pre-defined.
To create a timeslot hit the create button, choose the slot length and save. You can create individual or bulk slots via the batch create button.
