Join a meeting from your Webex site
Find your meeting in a flash by using the search bar or meeting list on your Webex site, and after that, attend it by using either the desktop application for Webex Meetings or the web application. You can use the web app to open the meeting immediately in your browser by doing so, or you can use the desktop app to open the meeting application with all of its features.
This article is relevant for sites running WBS40.6.x or a previous version. You will be able to connect to a video system and learn how to do so here if you are using a later edition of Webex.
Sign in to your Webex site
- Go to the website where you can sign in.
- After entering your email address, select the Next button.
- After entering your password for the account, select the Sign in button.
Join a meeting using the search bar
You can locate the meeting and attend it by using the search bar that is located at the very top of your Webex website. You can search using the meeting’s description, the host’s name, their Personal Room link or ID, or the 9-digit meeting number.
The Personal Room link will direct you to the location of the host’s Personal Room ID. For instance, if the connection to the Personal Room is example.webex.com/meet/giacomo, then the Personal Room ID that the host uses is giacomo.
- You can search for the meeting by clicking on the search bar and entering one of the available choices.
- Please use the password that was supplied to you in the meeting invitation email.
- To attend the meeting, click the attend button.
Depending on the choice that you selected most recently, either the desktop app or the web app will launch to begin your meeting.
Join a meeting from your Webex site in the desktop or web app
- You can attend a meeting by going to the Meetings section of your Webex site’s left navigation panel, then clicking the meeting’s name when it appears.
- In the event that it is required, enter the password for the meeting that was supplied in the email invitation.
- Use the desktop software or the web app by clicking the arrow to the right of the drop-down menu. Both offer a meeting experience that is comparable, but the web tool requires nothing more than your browser. Following that, select the option to Join Meeting.
The Webex site will remember whether you selected the desktop or web program, and it will use that choice as the default for only that particular site.
- Once the conference has begun, it will be time to select your audio and video preferences.
