Join your meeting

When you receive an email invitation to a meeting, webinar, event or training session, it looks something like this.

If you're using Linux or ChromeOS, the web app opens directly after you click Join meeting.

When joining from Windows or Mac, a new browser window opens, prompting you to launch the desktop app. But if you're having trouble, you can join from your browser.

Alternatively, you can sign in to your Webex site and join your meeting from there:

• Go to the Calendar tab on the left navigation panel. There, you can see a list of your meetings. Find the one you want to join.

• Sign in to your Webex site, enter the host or meeting name, Personal Room ID, or meeting number in the Search bar at the top.

Then, select the drop-down arrow on the right side of the Join Meeting button and choose Use web app.

Check your email invitation if you're prompted for a password.

You can join the meeting as a guest or, if you have an account, you can sign in.

Join as a guest:

• if you just want to join a meeting quickly without signing in.

• if you don't mind waiting in the lobby until the host admits you.

• if you don't need access to the full list of meeting features.

Sign in:

• if you have more meetings later. The next time you join a meeting, you'll join automatically as a fully authenticated user.

• if you don't want to wait in the lobby. You join the meeting right away.

• if you need access to the full list of meeting features.

Connect to audio and start your video

You can easily connect your audio and video in the preview window before you join a meeting, webinar, event, or training session. That way, you can make sure that everything sounds and looks good. Make sure to grant your browser permission to access your camera and microphone when prompted so you can be seen and heard in the meeting.

Make your Meeting experience your own

The Meetings web app is easy to navigate, with shared content or video in the center and meeting controls underneath. You can chat with people, share your screen, and see who else is in the meeting, among other things.
