  3. The Add-in also allows you to log out, so you may log in to a different account if you are using more than one account (for example, a personal account vs. a shared team account, or test accounts).

    Logout

  4. Once logged in, you will see your Meeting URL, dial-in information and the Enter My Meeting button so you can start a meeting anytime. Below that there is the link to send an email invitation which will open an email for you to send with your meeting information already populated:
