# Meetings and Calendar

Guide to creating, scheduling, and managing calendar meetings and events within Junovy Talk.

# Creating And Managing Calendar Meetings

Junovy Talk integrates with Junovy Calendar, allowing you to schedule and manage meetings directly from your conversations.

## Scheduling a Meeting from a Conversation

To schedule a meeting within a Talk conversation:

1. Open the conversation where you want to schedule a meeting
2. Click the calendar icon (📅) in the top toolbar next to the conversation name
3. Select a date and time for your meeting
4. Add a title and description
5. Click "Create meeting" to schedule

The meeting will be added to the calendar of all conversation participants.

## Meeting Settings in Conversations

Access meeting-related settings in Conversation Settings under the "Meeting" section:

**Enable lobby**: When enabled, participants must wait in a lobby until a moderator admits them. This helps control who can join your meeting and when.

**Import email participants**: Import a list of participants from a CSV file to quickly add multiple people to your meeting.

**Poll drafts**: Browse and manage poll drafts that can be used during your meeting for audience engagement.

## Viewing Upcoming Meetings

To see upcoming meetings:

1. Click the "Upcoming meetings" button (calendar icon) in the conversation toolbar
2. View all scheduled meetings for this conversation
3. Click on a meeting to see details or join when it's time

## Joining a Scheduled Meeting

When a scheduled meeting time arrives:

1. You'll receive a notification (if enabled)
2. Open the conversation associated with the meeting
3. Click "Join call" to enter the meeting

## Calendar Integration

Meetings created in Junovy Talk automatically sync with Junovy Calendar. You can:

- View Talk meetings in your Junovy Calendar
  - Receive calendar notifications before meetings
  - Add meetings to external calendars via iCal export

## Meeting Permissions

Control meeting behavior through Conversation Permissions:

**All permissions**: Participants can start calls, join calls, enable audio/video, and share screens freely.

**Restricted**: Participants can join calls but cannot enable audio, video, or share screen until a moderator grants permission. This is useful for webinars or large meetings.

**Advanced permissions**: Customize specific permissions for fine-grained control.

## Best Practices for Meetings

- **Set a clear agenda**: Use the conversation description to outline meeting topics
  - **Enable lobby for important meetings**: Control when participants can join
  - **Use polls for engagement**: Create polls beforehand to gather feedback during the meeting
  - **Record important meetings**: Consider using the call summary bot to capture meeting notes
  - **Start on time**: The host should be ready to admit participants promptly
