    Keep your meetings protected with a personalized PIN code that ensures a secure and interruption-free meeting.

    Our randomized PIN numbers guarantee maximum security, eliminating the risk of common and easily guessed pins like 12345.

    Let's go over how this works.

    Who can use this

    Meeting PINs are available to all Dialpad Meetings users.

    Add a PIN

    Users on a Dialpad Meetings Business plan can choose whether they would like to require a PIN in order for participants to join their meeting. 

    PINs are mandatory for users on a free Dialpad Meetings account. 

    To enable a PIN, head to your Dialpad Meetings dashboard.

    1. Select Menu

    2. Select Settings 
      Dialpad interface showing menu options and settings for starting a new meeting.

    3. Enable the toggle beside Require a PIN to Join?
      Settings page showing meeting URLs and PIN requirement options for joining.

    4. Select Confirm 

    Under Dial-in number, you'll now find the randomly selected 5-digit Participant and Host PIN for your meetings.  
    Settings page displaying meeting URLs and participant PINs for a video conferencing tool.

    When enabled, you'll be prompted to enter the Host PIN whether you're calling from the Host phone number or not.

    Change a PIN

    Dialpad Meetings Business and Dialpad Meetings Free accounts are able to change PINs.

    PIN numbers are 5 digits long, and are randomly generated by Dialpad — Users cannot choose their own pin. 

    To change your Meeting PIN, head to your Dialpad Meetings dashboard.

    1. Select Menu

    2. Select Settings 

    3. Navigate to Participant PIN or Host PIN
      Settings page displaying meeting URLs, PINs, and options for audio greeting.

    4. Select Change beside PIN you want to change 

    5. Select Change PIN

    That's it! Dialpad Meetings will generate a new PIN for you.

    Remove a PIN

    Only users on a Dialpad Meetings Business plan are able to remove mandatory PIN requirements.

    If you are on a free Dialpad Meetings plan, you'll need to upgrade your account before being able to remove Participant and User PINs.

    To remove a PIN, head to your Dialpad Meetings dashboard.

    1. Select Menu

    2. Select Settings 

    3. Disable the toggle beside Require a PIN to join? 
      Settings page showing meeting details and PIN requirement for joining meetings.

    Note

    If your Company Admin has set a mandatory PIN requirement for all team members, you will not be able to change this setting.
