[NABS-L] Handling a google hangout calendar invite

[Seyoon Choi]

Hi Elizabeth,

If a person you are planning on connecting with has your contact info, such as your email address, you’ll likely receive an invitation which includes a calendar invite to join the google hangout. Most email clients will automatically input any calendar invitations, and any relevant details, such as an instruction to join the meeting are within the invitation itself. What are you c currently working with, your device, email program?

Hope this helps!

Take care
Seyoon

Is this a platform similar to Zoon where you can simply dial into a meeting with a phone? Or is it better to use an app on my iphone or computer? Any information would be greatly appreciated.
