Protect your content by setting a PIN to ensure you don't have any unexpected visitors during your meeting. PIN numbers are randomized to ensure optimal security and avoid people from using PINs such as 12345.

Let's go over how this works.

  1. Select Menu from your Dialpad Meetings Dashboard
  2. Select Settings
  3. Navigate to Meeting
  4. Slide the toggle on beside Require a PIN to join?Meetings_PIN.png

Under Phone number, Dialpad now displays the randomly select a 5-number Participant PIN and Organizer PIN for your meetings.
