Manage meeting attendees in Adobe Connect

Търсене

Manage attendees, their activities, and their permissions in an Adobe Connect meeting. Adjust permissions for status sharing and attendee role.

In the Attendees pod, everyone can quickly see who is logged in to a meeting. Hosts and presenters can monitor attendee names, roles, and statuses (such as Raised Hand or Agree). If configured, the active speakers are also displayed in real time, in a dedicated area in the Attendees pod.

Use the Attendee Pod to monitor names, roles, and discussion status.
Use the Attendee (A) and Attendee Status (B) views to monitor names, roles, and discussion status.

Бележка:

Adobe Connect administrators can change pod, sharing, and other settings to adhere to standards for governance. These settings affect the layout of meeting rooms and what you can do in meeting rooms. For more information, see Working with compliance and control settings.

View or change an attendee’s role

A host can change the role of any attendee in the Attendees pod, promoting, and demoting attendees as necessary.

About attendee names

Adobe Connect users who logged in with a password appear with their full names in the Attendees pod, because the names are registered in Adobe Connect Central. If an attendee logs in to a meeting as a guest, the name in the Attendees pod is the name the attendee enters at login. Within a role group (hosts, presenters, and participants), attendee names are organized alphabetically.

The Attendees pod displays the telephone number of the participants who dial in or dial out using a telephone. Meeting Hosts can mask the phone numbers of the participants to uphold their privacy. The option is available in the in-meeting preferences dialog, in the Attendee Pod section. The option is persistent for a meeting room.

Бележка:

The option for Hosts to mask the phone numbers is enabled only if cluster-wide masking is disabled.

Customize attendee names
