Lock or unlock meeting settings

Admins can further secure Video meetings by locking the settings for all users in the account via the online account. The users will not be able to make changes to a specific setting when locked by the administrator.
  1. Log in to the online account, as an administrator.
  2. Go to Admin Portal > Meetings > Meetings Settings.
  3. Select the settings that need to be enabled and locked. To prevent the participants from changing the setting on their end during a meeting, click the Lock icon. You can go back to this page to unlock the setting after the meeting.
