The Workplace room is designed for people to work together in real-time. It offers a zoomable interface with the ability to use and record multiple whiteboards while chatting with your colleagues and working on projects.

How to create and try out the Workplace?

Setting up the Workplace room follows the same steps as other rooms:

  • On the left panel where rooms are displayed, select "Add room".
  • Choose "Workplace room" from the available room types.
  • Once added, the new room will be displayed at the end of the list.
