Organizers (or notetakers) can easily see who has joined the call (limits the “Who just joined?” and rollcall at the beginning of meetings). Many times dial in meetings often turn into needing to share information (share screen, documents, IM, etc.). There are no more issues with scheduling an “online meeting” then also trying to manage a dial in conference bridge line. This allows organizers to host a meeting where users can join any Skype for Business meeting via Skype client, or dial in via phone (or combination). When the license is enabled, the organizer’s meetings will have a dial in number and conference ID added to the meeting information. This functionality also allows you to dial a phone number to add it to an existing meeting. This is also commonly referred to as a dial in conference, or a conference bridge line. They can be managed like any other participant.Skype for Business Audio Conferencing (Public Switched Telephone Network) conferencing allows at least one participant to dial into the audio portion of a Skype meeting. If answered, the participant will be added with a icon net to their phone number. The call will behave almost identically to any Skype meeting, but you will still have a dial pad with some options.īack to top Manage Participants To view or manage participants, click the button at the top left of the meeting. Click Call or press Enter on your keyboard. Dial the number by either clicking the buttons on the dial pad or pressing the number keys on your keyboard. This is the number that you can be reached in Skype for Business by phone and the number that will show when making outgoing calls. Your Skype for Business phone number will display in the My Number box.
Click on the keypad icon in your Skype for Business application to open the dialer. The caller will be announced to the meeting, and will be listed as a Guest. The caller will be asked to record their name. The caller will be prompted for the Conference ID number, which is both to the right of the call in number and at the bottom of the email invitation. Participants may join the meeting by calling the Toll Number. Participants may join the meeting by clicking on the Try Skype Web App link. Participants may join the meeting by clicking on the Join Skype Meeting link. (Please see the Schedule a Meeting article for more information.) When creating a Skype for Business meeting in Outlook, dial in information will be automatically added to the body of the meeting invitation email.
