Enable external connections based on conversations

Avatar

You can automatically connect with external users who are in the same external chat room with the proper entitlements: the Enable external connections based on conversations entitlement must be enabled for both users. If this is true, when you are added into an external room, a connection request will automatically be created and accepted for other external user(s) in the room.

Enable external connections based on conversations by following these steps:

 

1. Click Settings > General in the upper righthand corner (Figure 1):

6. Connection requests will now automatically be created and accepted for other external user(s) in the same external room

 

Note: If users do not wish to automatically connect, ensure this option is disabled
