For any Session or Event other than a private Session, you can invite other people to join you. If someone is a connection, you can invite them directly. Otherwise, they can join through use of a Session ID.
If your Session is protected with a password, the person that you invite will need to enter the password to join the Session.
A quick link provides a shortcut to a specific Session. For more information about how to use a quick link, see Joining through a quick link.
To copy a quick link for a Session, complete the following steps:
Open your menu or tablet.
Select People .
In the upper-right corner of the People page, select Invite.
Select the copy icon ( ) in the Quick Link panel.
The quick link is copied to your clipboard. Share the link with anyone that you want to join the Session.
Quick links don't expire and are valid for as long as the Session is available. However, after someone follows the quick link in their web browser, the option to go directly to the Session in the ENGAGE application expires after one hour. For more information, see Joining through a quick link.
