Target Audience: Rainbow User [Bubble Organizer] Related Offer: Enterprise
As a Bubble Organizer, you can create an audio/video conference (WebRTC) up to 10 attendees from a Bubble. The bubble organizer may even invite external members to join their conference (Learn more here).
NOTE: Even though all clients (Web/Desktop, iOS, Android) may join an audio/video conference, these conferences cannot be recorded.
Go to your "Bubbles" pages and click on the tab "My Bubbles" to select the Bubble within which you wish to hold a conference.
Click on the icon located at the right of the Bubble's line to start a conference. All members of this Bubble are simultaneously being called.
Once they have answered, their status in the "participant list" change from green (Online) to red (Busy).
As the Bubble organizer, you may turn off the microphone of each of your Bubble participants or hang up with any of them.
Besides, a series of icons is available below your avatars to "Turn off your microphone," "Add video media," "Share your screen" or "End the meeting." A list of icons is presented at the end of this article.
When the conference is over, information (status of the conference, duration, timestamp) is displayed at the end of your Bubble conversation wall.
How to Hold an Audio/Video Conference?
Go to your "Bubbles" page by clicking on the icon in the lower banner of your screen and select the tab "My bubbles." Choose one of your Bubbles and open it.
Click on the white telephone icon located in the top right corner of your screen to start a conference with your bubble's participants.
When the conference starts, a dedicated page is displayed. You may see the name of your Bubble at the top of your screen. If you want to go back to your Bubble information, click on the white "R" icon in the top left corner of your screen.
As you can see, all bubble participants are busy (Red dot).
As a Bubble organizer, you may mute or hang up with any participant. Simply click on the Bubble participant to display these options.
To go back to the meeting screen, click on the top green banner "Call in progress."
When you decide to end the conference, read the pop-up message saying that all Bubble members will be disconnected before clicking on "End meeting."
Information (duration, date, timestamp) is displayed on your conversation wall.

This feature should be available for all "Enterprise" users in the course of this month. We will keep you informed as soon as you can use this feature!
You can find here an official announce about the audio/video Conferences release. Since Monday, this feature is available to all Rainbow Enterprise Users!
I've tested the multiparty conference a couple of times and the audio works pretty fine. What about the multi-party video (with several small videofeeds). Today it's only possible to manually switch who's user video is visible for the other user and only one simultaneous feed is visible.
Video gallery feature will be available with the next Rainbow version release who is planned for this weekend! Our Early Adopters will try the feature few days to give us their feedback. The feature should be available to all Rainbow Enterprise User within the week.
I will confirme you here as soon as the feature is available.

Could you please add instructions to this page on how to rejoin a conference if you've been disconnected?
Thank you
Once you get disconnected, make sure you open the Bubble, you should see a Join Conference button at the top of the Bubble (attendee)
If you have joined the Bubble conference from a Mobile there will be a little handset symbol instead of the Join Conference button
If you are the organiser and you get disconnected, everyone will be disconnected and you will have to start the entire conference again.
I hope this helps
Hi Brain, this did help!
I still think it could be added to the actual article.
Thanks for your help!
