This article is for Google Beam for Meet. Go to the Zoom documentation if you're using Google Beam for Zoom.

Schedule a Beam meeting

Beam meetings are similar to standard video meetings, but require these two steps to ensure the 3D experience:

  • Invite your meeting partner.
  • Find a Beam room at each location and add them when creating the invite.

For instructions specific to your calendar app, go to Schedule a 3D Beam meeting.

Start or join a Beam meeting

  • For a scheduled meeting: go to your scheduled Beam room and tap the meeting name on the touchscreen or enter the meeting code.
  • For an instant meeting: 
    • To start the meeting, go to a Beam room, tap  on the touchscreen, then click Create and give the meeting code to your meeting partner.
    • To join the meeting, go to a Beam room and enter the meeting code your meeting partner gave you.

For more details, go to Start or join a 3D Beam meeting.

Present to a Beam meeting

To present in a Beam meeting, you must be signed in to your Google Workspace account on your personal device, and join the meeting from that device using Companion mode (g.co/companion).

For more details, go to Present to a 3D Beam meeting.

Troubleshoot a Beam meeting

  • If you have audio issues, check the mute buttons and volume in each room.
  • If you have trouble connecting to the call, try quitting and rejoining. 
 

For more details on fixing audio and video issues, go to Troubleshoot a 3D Beam meeting.
