Creating and Editing Static Meetings

Static meetings are meetings that are permanently available after they have been configured. Each static meeting has its own associated meeting number; meetings attendees dial into that specific number when attending a static meeting. You can also add participants to a static meeting through the Active Meetings page.

Note Static meetings use ad hoc meeting resources.
