To host virtual meetings via web conference, you will need to begin by clicking the Settings icon in the navigation menu and then navigating to the Web Conferencing tab.
In the new menu that appears, you'll see a list of Appointlet's core web conferencing integration options. Let's take a look at the setup process.
Connecting your Web Conferencing Service
You will be presented with this web conference setup menu. Click the button that says Connect on the web conferencing software of your choice and you will be taken to an authentication screen.

If you are already logged into your web conferencing account, the screen will simply ask you to accept or decline the integration. If you are not logged in yet, enter your login credentials to connect Appointlet to your web conferencing account.
Upon connecting, the web conferencing browser tab will close automatically. Appointlet will auto-update to display your connected account. You can click the ellipsis (...) to access the web conference settings or delete the connection.
Keep in mind that Google Meet does not require a manual connection in this menu. You'll need to connect your Google Calendar account to Appointlet and this will satisfy the integration for this step.
Setting a Web Conferencing Location
With your web conference service integrated at the user level, you can close the user settings panel and navigate to your scheduling pages. From here, click on the meeting type that should be configured for web conferencing.
Navigate to the Location tab and select your desired web conferencing service. Be sure to save and publish your changes to update the meeting type settings.

Host and Attendee Links
Once your web conference location and integration are set up correctly, your meetings will automatically generate a unique web conference URL for each meeting. All attendees will receive a confirmation email that includes a direct link to join the meeting.
As the meeting host, you'll receive a notification email with the link as well, but you'll also have access to the link in the Meetings tab of your dashboard.
