EAB Navigate360: Clickable URL/Phone Number in Appointment Details

Summary

Navigate now has the ability to include a URL/Phone number for the meeting, assisting in a virtual environment

 

Content

When setting Availability users can now include a URL/Phone number text box to allow you to schedule a Teams session link (or other video meeting room link), or a phone number to connect via phone/conference line.

NOTE

  • A Teams on-line link will overlap the field and appear questionable, however in all of our testing the link will work as expected.
  • To add the URL/Phone number to previously set availabilities, you will need to edit or re-create the previous appointment availabilities.

"Modify Availability" dialog

 

TIP: Creating a Teams Permanent Link allows you to add a link to your communications. The link will act like the "meeting room" on other platforms. For more information, please refer to: Teams Meetings: Creating Persistent Meeting Links

Example of Schedule Appointment details

 

After adding the URL/Phone number text, the link will be displayed and click able in the appointment confirmation, update and reminder emails.

Confirmation screen

 

For reference, access the Setting Availability knowledge base article.

As a reminder, you are not able to schedule any virtual, phone, or in-person appointment with a student if it conflicts with their scheduled class time.  You can view your students class schedule by clicking on the MORE tab on the student overview and selecting CALENDAR.
