Create or delete meeting highlights during a meeting or webinar – Webex
Using Webex Assistant for Meetings, hosts of meetings and webinars as well as participants in those events can record highlights of essential topics discussed during a meeting or webinar. The highlights are condensed notes that can be distributed to others and followed up on in the future. Following the conclusion of the meeting or webinar, the host receives an email with a summary of the event, which is also accessible on the Webex site they used to hold the event. Hosts have the ability to email selected highlights to other attendees as well as share the highlights with anyone who has an account on their Webex site.
With the version 41.7 upgrade, the Webex App now provides includes support for Webinars and Meetings in addition to the previously available Webex Assistant. Webex Assistant is not supported for meetings that are begun or joined from within a space.
Unfortunately, Webex for Government does not support the Webex Assistant application.
