How do I share my webcam? (Desktop App)
You can use high-definition video conferencing to meet face-to-face with your other session participants. Up to 25 different webcams can be shared during a session! All you need is an internet connection and a webcam to begin a telepresence-quality experience.
Preview your webcam

Pause/restart sharing your webcam
When you pause webcam sharing, other attendees will still see the webcam box with your name, but the screen will be blacked out until you resume sharing. This does not free up a webcam spot (e.g., if all 25 webcam spots are filled, another attendee will not be able to start sharing their webcam).

to restart sharing.
