The RingCentral app makes joining a meeting simple. You can easily start, join, and schedule a meeting all within the Video interface, so there’s no need to leave the app to join a meeting. Additionally, when it’s time to join a scheduled meeting, the app will notify you when a meeting has started, ensuring you’re always on time for your meeting.
You can join a meeting that has been scheduled either by you or another user in the RingCentral app. Additionally, you can also sync your Outlook or Google calendar with the RingCentral app so all your scheduled meetings are in one place, allowing you to join any meeting without leaving the app. To learn more about connecting your calendar, visit Connecting your Microsoft or Google calendar in the RingCentral app desktop and web.
If you have synced your calendar, scheduled meetings will appear in the Meetings page, which acts as the homepage of the Video interface. When you navigate to this page, you can join a scheduled meeting in one of two ways. Let’s review these methods below.
Joining a meeting
There are several ways to join a meeting:
- By clicking the Join button via the meetings dashboard
- By clicking the Join next to a scheduled meeting in your meetings calendar
- By clicking the Join button via the meetings dashboard, then selecting a recent meeting
Let’s review these methods below.

2. In the Meetings page, click the Join button at the top of the page to open the Join a meeting modal window
3. Enter the Meeting ID or link in the Meeting ID field
4. Click the Join button to open that meeting in a new separate window. If the meeting creator has required a password, provide the password to join that meeting
5. Configure your audio sources in the meeting that opens on your device
Joining a recent meeting via the meetings dashboard
To join a recent meeting via the Join button in the meetings dashboard, follow these steps:
1. Navigate to Video via the left-hand navigation bar

Finally, depending on your video service, you will have slightly different options for selecting your audio sources from which you’d like to start your meeting.
If you’re using RingCentral Video to start a meeting, visit Joining RingCentral Video audio on desktop and web.
Dialing in to a meeting
In addition to joining a meeting, you can also dial in to a meeting using the RingCentral desktop or web app. Please note that dialing in to a meeting will not allow you to have a camera turned on, nor will you be able to view if someone is sharing their screen.
Also note that you must have phone features enabled at the company account level in order to use this feature.
To dial in to a meeting, follow these steps:
1. Navigate to Video via the left-hand navigation bar
2. Hover your mouse over a scheduled meeting and click the More kebab icon that appears a far right
3. Click the Dial in option via the dropdown menu
Once you select the Dial in button, your dial pad will open and the system will dial the number and access code associated with the meeting.
