Online Meeting Details
If your event is virtual or you'd like to support online meeting details for those that are unable to join in person, you'll want to enable Online Meeting Details.
Online Meeting Platform Integration
Your account may have an online meeting platform integrated. If integration exists, as you build your schedule items, it will automatically generate the online meeting link. This way you don't need to use your own licenses, or worry about generating all links manually and the links will update the date & time as you shift your schedule.
Choose the Online Meeting Service you would like to use.
Upon enabling the online meeting details, you'll be able to choose the type of online meeting as follows:
Symphony
Symphony provides an all-in-one virtual event experience that is a more elevated experience. With Symphony being native to Cadence, you are able to immerse people into presentation content without sacrificing your already epic event experience.
Zoom
When configuring a Schedule Item or Appointment with Online Meeting Details, you can add your own Zoom meeting link (or any other online meeting platform). Selecting Zoom will automatically create and schedule Zoom meetings from within Cadence without having to manually schedule and add the link from your own Zoom account.
URL
Allows you to paste a Meeting Link and additional Online Meeting Details to include the dial-in information.
Embed
For this type of meeting, you can enter the Embed code.
