      (Beta) How to set up one-click video conferencing with Outlook Calendar

      This new feature is available to customers who would like to participate in beta testing.

      Vibe now supports one-click video conferencing with Google Calendar or Outlook Calendar. This feature enables users to start a meeting with a single click on your Vibe's home screen. If you wish to set up one-click VC with Google Calendar, please refer to this help article.

      Follow these step-by-step instructions to set up one-click VC with Outlook Calendar:

        Requirements for setup

        • Own a Vibe board device
        • Be a current paid user of MS Teams for video conferencing
        • Have a Microsoft account 

          How to enable your device

          1. Request access to the one-click VC feature (beta) on your Vibe board.
            How to request access: Please complete this form to participate in early beta access. Our customer success team will enable this feature for you. You can find the serial number for your Vibe device in Settings -> About Vibe -> Serial Number.
          2. Reboot your device. There will be a Setup One-Click Video Conferencing prompt on the home screen.
            setup

          Tip: Make sure you're using the default home screen. To set up your home screen, go to Settings - Screen Saver - Themes and choose Home Screen.

          When the Setup One-Click Video Conferencing prompt appears on your screen, you can continue to set up:

          → on a personal Vibe device
          For a personal Vibe board, the user can authorize this Vibe to retrieve and display all of their meetings on the Start screen.

          → on a team Vibe device as a shared resource

          A Microsoft admin may set up this device so it can be used by any team member to schedule meetings. (This option is appropriate if the Vibe will be used in a shared conference room.)
