By default, participants join a Vevox session using a 9-digit Session ID. However, for added security, you can set up a passcode, requiring participants to enter both the Session ID and a passcode before joining.
Why Use a Passcode?
- It prevents unauthorized access if someone shares the Session ID.
- It ensures only intended participants can join.
- It adds an extra layer of security for sensitive discussions.
To add a passcode to your session:
Go to your sessions list. On the session you want to add a passcode, press the 'more options' (or three dots) icon.
Select 'Invite participants' from the dropdown menu.
Here is where you can copy Invitation instructions to send to your participants. At the top of this box, you can add a passcode to your meeting.
Type in a passcode and press 'Set Passcode'.
When you save your passcode it will be automatically added to the joining instructions that you can send to your participants.
To exit this screen press 'Close'.
Participants will be requested to add the passcode as well as the 9-digit ID when logging into the Vevox app.
An alternative way to set up your passcode is to select the 'Settings' option in the left-hand navigation. Choose the 'Participant Identification' section, enter your passcode, and click 'Save.'
