Overview

Most of us now rely on video meeting apps so we’ve embedded a “Video Calling” widget that links "Microsoft Teams" directly into Pipeliner appointments.

Once enabled, your users need to activate their own account from the "Settings › Apps" tab and will then be able to select from the Microsoft Teams Meeting dropdown in the Video Calling widget to automatically create a meeting link in the Location and Description. Adding "Attendees" to your meeting will automatically share these details with them.

PREREQUISITES: In order to use this integration, you will need to have a Pipeliner Cloud subscription and an Office 365/Microsoft Teams account.

Fill in the subject and date and time of your planned meeting and then click on “Add Microsoft Teams Meeting” ⤵

The "Description" and "Location" field of your "Appointment" will be automatically populated with the meeting details and link ⤵

You can join the meeting directly from the widget by clicking on “Join Microsoft Teams Meeting” ⤵
