Join a Meeting

How to join a project meeting via the public LFX meeting link.

Last updated

Every project meeting hosted in LFX Self Serve has a join page. Opening the link takes you straight to that meeting's details — there's no list to pick from first. A Private meeting's link works without an LFX account; a Restricted meeting generally doesn't — see "Restricted meetings" below.

Steps

  1. Open the meeting join link shared by your meeting organizer. The link follows the format: https://app.lfx.dev/meetings/{meeting-id}.
  2. The page shows the meeting title, date and time, and a join button (if the meeting is starting soon or already underway). If you're signed in, it also shows who's organizing the meeting. Use the Copy meeting link button if you want to save or forward it.
  3. If the meeting is marked Restricted, you'll generally need to be signed in and match an existing registrant to see full join details — see "Restricted meetings" below.

No account required (Private meetings)

A Private meeting's join link carries the meeting's password as a query parameter, so anyone with the link can join without signing in. A Restricted meeting works differently — there's no anonymous form to get past it; you'll generally need to sign in as a registrant, or as the organizer or a linked committee member.

Meeting not found

If you open a meeting link and see the Meeting Not Found page, it's usually one of: the link has expired or is no longer valid, the meeting was deleted or cancelled, you need access to a restricted meeting, or there's a typo in the URL. Contact the meeting organizer for a correct link, or use the Contact Support button on that page.

Restricted meetings

There's no passcode you enter manually, and no anonymous form to submit an email or username either. A Restricted meeting only shows full join details to people who are signed in and match an existing registrant record (by email), plus organizers and members of a committee linked to the meeting. If you land on the Meeting Not Found page for a Restricted meeting, ask the meeting organizer to add you as a registrant, then make sure you're signed in. Note that the organizer's name and contact link are only shown on the join page to signed-in visitors — if you're not signed in, sign in or ask whoever shared the link with you to reach the organizer on your behalf.

Register for a meeting

If a meeting is public and not restricted, and you haven't already been invited, the join page shows a Register for Meeting button — but you need to be signed in to see it. Selecting it opens a short form: First Name, Last Name, and Email are required; Job Title and Organization are optional. Submitting adds you as a registrant for that meeting. The button doesn't appear if you're not signed in, if you're already invited, or if the meeting is Restricted (for a Restricted meeting, ask the organizer to add you as a registrant instead).

Respond to an invitation (RSVP)

If you've been invited to a meeting, the join page shows Yes, No, and Maybe buttons so you can respond — you need to be signed in to see these buttons. For a recurring meeting, responding asks you to choose a scope first:

  • All occurrences — applies your response to the entire series
  • This occurrence only — applies only to the specific meeting you're responding from
  • This and following occurrences — applies to this occurrence and every future one in the series

Meeting materials

The join page shows a Meeting Materials panel with two kinds of materials the organizer has added: Primary Materials (uploaded files you can download) and Supporting Materials (links). You need to be signed in to see materials — this applies to every meeting, not just Private ones. Only the meeting organizer can add or update materials.

After the meeting: recording, transcript, and AI summary

Once a meeting has ended, its join page can show a Meeting Tools panel with a recording link, an AI-generated summary, and a transcript — if the organizer enabled those features and content is available. This panel only appears if you're signed in, and only if you have access to the meeting:

  • If the meeting was public and not restricted, any signed-in visitor has access.
  • Otherwise, you have access if you're the organizer, a registrant, someone who actually attended, or a member of a committee linked to the meeting.
  • Unauthenticated visitors never see this panel for a non-public or restricted meeting.

The AI summary shows an Approved or Pending Review status badge alongside its content.
