Video conferencing

Use video conferencing to discuss live missions or review recorded footage with other users. The integrated service uses LiveKit and must be configured by an administrator.

Conference room

Creating a room

  1. Click Conferences in the top app bar.
  2. Enter a unique room name.
  3. Assign user groups to restrict access, if required. A room without assigned groups is available to authenticated users.
  4. Click Create.

Open Advanced Settings to set the idle timeout or participant limit. The idle timeout closes a room after it has had no connected users for the configured period.

Advanced conference settings

Joining a room

Select a room from the available rooms list. Blue rooms are public; red rooms have restricted access. Users see rooms they are allowed to join, while administrators can access all rooms.

Join conference room

The room opens in a separate window. Allow access to your microphone and camera if you want to use audio and video. Allow pop-ups for the site if the room does not open.

Deleting a room

Administrators can delete a room using the delete icon on its room chip.

Using an external conference service

Set CUSTOM_CONFERENCE_SERVER_URL in .env to open your own conference page when users click Conferences:

CUSTOM_CONFERENCE_SERVER_URL=http://localhost:8400

The URL is opened by the user's browser. In this example, localhost refers to the user's computer; use a reachable service address for remote clients.

See Installation for the integrated service configuration.
