If this is a blended meeting (some online participants and some on-campus), be sure to edit the location to include the on-campus meeting room. Without a Dial-in PIN, you cannot host a meeting using the phone – you must use a computer and log in using a web browser or the Skype for Business/Lync software. This only applies if you have full Enterprise Voice associated with your account (which means your UW phone is a Skype for Business phone instead of a traditional telephone handset).

To call in from any on campus telephone (whether a Skype for Business or Avaya PBX phone), dial the extension number. This number can be used for callers outside of North America but will incur long distance charges for the caller. To call in from Waterloo Region, use the 519 area code number. When prompted, you will need to enter the Conference ID from the invitation (which will be different than the one pictured here). To call in Toll-Free from anywhere in North America, use the 1-844 number on the invitation.
