I. Introduction

In a Boardable Video conferencing session, some participants can remove others from the call. Additionally, some participants can mute others, and turn off the cameras of others.

These permissions are determined by a participant's Boardable Video role.

There are two Boardable Video roles:

  • Boardable Video admin

  • Boardable Video attendee

To view a person's Boardable Video role:
