Joining a Meeting
How to join a meeting in InterMIND via link, ID, or invitation.
Joining a Meeting
Join via Link
The most common way to join a meeting:
- Click the meeting link shared with you (e.g.,
https://intermind.com/abc-def-hij) - If you're signed in, you go directly to the pre-join setup
- Configure your camera and microphone
- Click Join
Join via Meeting ID
If you have a meeting ID instead of a link:
- Go to the Meetings page
- Click Join Meeting
- Enter the meeting ID or paste the full URL
- Click Join
- Configure your camera and microphone in the pre-join setup
- Click Join to enter the meeting
Join as a Guest
If you don't have an InterMIND account, you can join ad-hoc meetings as a guest:
- Click the meeting link
- You'll see the guest join screen
- Enter your display name
- Click Request to Join
- An anonymous account is created automatically
- You'll see a waiting room while the host reviews your request
- Once the host approves, you enter the meeting
Guest access is only available for ad-hoc meetings. Team channels require a team account.
Join Channel Meetings
For team channels:
- Navigate to the channel from your chats or meetings page
- Click to join the channel
- You must be a member of the team that owns the channel
- No host approval needed — team members have direct access
Pre-Join Setup
Before entering any meeting, you see the pre-join setup screen where you can:
- Preview your camera — See how you look
- Select microphone — Choose from available input devices
- Select camera — Choose from available cameras
- Select speakers — Choose audio output device
- Start muted — Toggle microphone and camera off before joining
You can skip this screen by disabling it in Settings → Meeting Defaults.
