How do I host an audio only meeting?
An audio-only meeting allows users to connect to the audio conference of a meeting without launching the screensharing portion of the session.
Organizers can start a meeting from their phone by connecting to audio via phone call (toll or toll-free) and entering the organizer PIN. Attendees can join the meeting from all outlets (desktop app, browser, mobile app, or phone call).
Note: If your account has enhanced audio, then you will need to disable the toll-free numbers for the recurring session that you are scheduling (otherwise the audio bridge may not be available for "audio only" access).
Set an organizer PIN
Results: The next time you want to start an audio-only
meeting, use this PIN when dialing in.
Schedule an audio-only meeting
Scheduling an audio-only
meeting works the same way as a regular
meeting! Just make sure to
make the meeting a rooms meeting (also known as "recurring meetings") and include long-distance numbers and/or your own conference call information as audio options. Once the meeting is scheduled, you can invite attendees.
Start a meeting by phone
Any caller that knows the organizer PIN can start the
meeting. The individual to start the
meeting becomes the organizer.
Before you begin: Make sure you created an organizer PIN.
Results: You have started the session! Future callers will not be prompted to enter the organizer PIN. You can manage your phone audio with
keypad commands.
What to do next: Manage your phone audio with
keypad commands. When you're ready to end the
meeting, hang up. The
meeting will go on for 5 more minutes and all callers will be disconnected from the session.
