Weekly Online Group Meeting
If asked, Online Group Leaders (OGLs) share the Join Meeting Link* (or Participant Link) with their Online Group Members (OGMs), so that the OGMs can join the weekly meeting as participants, not Hosts. See this article here for more information: Leader - Host Link vs Participant Link
*Make sure you are not copying the link from your My Group page, as that is the Start Meeting Link and will allow the OGM join the meeting as the Host. Use this link for your Substitute Leader
To share the Online Meeting Join Meeting Link with OGMs:
- Login to bsfonline.org
- Navigate to the My Calendar page by selecting the ‘My Calendar’ button in the upper right-hand corner of bsfonline.org (NOT the My Group page)
- In the Gold Group Meeting box, copy the Join Meeting Link using the ‘Copy Link’ button above the Host Meeting Link; This function copies the meeting link to your device’s clipboard and then the link can be shared via WhatsApp or email
Important! The actual Zoom information within the meeting (under the Green Shield in the upper left corner) *CHANGES* each meeting, so make sure you are using the link provided on the BSFO website which remains constant throughout the year.
BSF Appointments
Similarly, when scheduling BSF Appointments using the BSF Host License, OGLs must share the Join BSF Appointment Link (or Participant Link) with the attendees of the meeting.
To share the Join BSF Appointment Link with attendees:
- Login to bsfonline.org
- Go to your profile under the Navigation menu, Account > Edit Profile
- On the left side of the screen, select the ‘Online Meeting License’ page
- Copy the Join BSF Appointment Link using the ‘Copy Link’ button above the Host BSF Appointment Link; This function copies the meeting link to your device’s clipboard and then the link can be shared via WhatsApp or email
