How do I add a password to my meeting?

Organizers can a password to their meeting for additional privacy. Once password-protected, attendees will need to enter the same password to join the meeting.

Remember that you must send the password to your attendees or they won't be able to enter the meeting. For security reasons, GoTo does not send the password for you.
Note: Local recording is only available for password-protected meetings.
  1. Create a new session or edit an existing one.
  2. Open More options.
  3. Under Security, enable Require a meeting password.
  4. Select Save.
  5. When you send out the meeting invite, replace the default password (##meetingPassword) with the one you will use so attendees are aware.
Results: Before you start the meeting, you will be prompted to set up a password. Make sure it matches the one you sent attendees and then select Start my session.
Note: If you did not send the password to attendees beforehand, please do so via email, chat, etc. so they can join the meeting.
