How do I schedule a BT Cloud Phone meeting?

Schedule Meeting allows you to setup an upcoming meeting using the BT Cloud Phone Meetings for Desktop. This article will guide you on how to schedule a meeting on your BT Cloud Phone Meetings for Desktop.

UPDATE: BT Cloud Phone Meetings is replacing the legacy dial-in number with a new number by October 2016. After the migration, the Meeting ID will be automatically confirmed (no need to press "1"). An error prompt appears if the meeting ID is incorrect. Meeting security will also be enhanced by making sure the phone participants cannot enter the meeting before the host when Enable join before host (Meetings Desktop app) or Allow Join Before Host (Meetings Mobile app) is disabled.

Click on the links below to learn more about how you can schedule or update a meeting with RingCentral Meetings for Desktop.
