What Is an On-Demand Conference?

An on-demand conference lets you start a meeting immediately without scheduling it in advance. Your Online Meeting Room and Conference Line are always active and ready to use. You can share the same link and access code for every on-demand call.

How to Start an On-Demand Teleconference (Phone Only)

  1. Copy and share your conference details (dial-in number and access code) with participants, along with the date and time to call in.
  2. Host: Call your preferred dial-in number and enter your Moderator PIN followed by #.
  3. Participants: Call the same dial-in number and enter the access code followed by #.

The same call-in details work for every future on-demand call. No login or scheduling is required. Participants can join by web or phone and will all be connected in the same conference.

How to Start an On-Demand Web or Video Conference

  1. Share your meeting link with participants and let them know the date and time to join. No scheduling is needed.
  2. Host: Log in to your account and click Start.
  3. Participants: Open the meeting room link in their browser or open the app and enter the meeting access code.

The same link and access code work for every future on-demand meeting. Participants can join by web or phone and will all be connected in the same conference.

To start without audio or with screen share only:

  • Click the arrow next to Start and choose Without Audio or Screen Share Without Audio.

Tip: You can also start an on-demand video conference by pasting your unique conference URL directly into your browser. If you are not logged in, you will be prompted to log in when the link opens. Click Copy Call Information on your account home page to copy the link to your clipboard and paste it into an email or message.

Finding Your Conference Details

Your conference details (dial-in number, access code, and meeting link) can be found in two places:

  • Click Copy Details on the top left of your account dashboard.
  • Click the Dial-In Information button in the center of your dashboard, below the Start and Schedule buttons.

Copy and paste this information into an email or messaging app to share with participants quickly.
