Overview

When you schedule a meeting, you can save its settings so they can be used as a template for scheduling future meetings. The template includes settings like enabling join before host, automatic recording, language interpretation, and alternative hosts. For recurring meetings, you also have the option to save the recurrence schedule as part of the template.

After you save a meeting as a template, you can select that template when you want to create a meeting with similar settings. You can select from up to 40 saved-meeting templates.
