Using and understanding the Meetings report

Last updated on September 01, 2021
The Meetings tab is available for RingCentral Video only. This report populates as a table showing details for every RingCentral Video meeting within your organization, based on the filters you selected. Note that if you are viewing it on a mobile device, the elements discussed are stacked vertically on the screen.

Let’s review each component of this screen separately.

The top line of the card shows:
  • Search field: Use the search field to display the name of a meeting attendant. This is useful for finding one name in meetings with long attendee lists.
  • Attendee name: Name of meeting attendees in first name alphabetical order.
  • Arrow: Clicking on the arrow opens the user’s name in a new window in the QoS extensions tab.
  • Endpoint: Shows an icon representing how the user connected to the meeting. Hovering over the icon shows its label.
  • Start time: Time the user joined the meeting.
  • End time: Time the user left the meeting. This can be helpful to see when a connection might have been severed before the meeting concluded.

Below the Average table, Session Timeline shows signal quality data over the duration of the meeting in graph form. Clicking in the graph toggles to the Timeline view. This view lets you examine data on a minute by minute basis. To see even more granular timeframes, click the down arrow next to Minute in the Session Timeline upper right to toggle to the 10 seconds view.

You can also see the timeline view by clicking the Timeline tab in the upper left of the call card. 
 
This is useful for troubleshooting issues by following the precise time connection quality dropped. For example, if you’re an IT administrator who’s been asked why an employee experienced a poor connection, you could search on the employee’s name to find out all the meetings they’ve attended and zero in on the problematic meeting. Opening the call card shows a quality drop at 9:39. Switching to 10 seconds view shows the quality spiking and diminishing between 9:38 and 9:41. You could ask the employee if they were doing anything at that moment. You could find out that the dog was barking inside the house, so the employee went outside to hear better, but was then further from their internet connection, which affected quality. In that case, you could advise the employee that their connection outside is weaker than it is in the house.
