How to Change the Location of a Webex Meeting

Anyone can use Cisco's Webex unified communications platform, which simplifies collaboration by integrating calling, messaging, and meetings in a single app, and which delivers results faster than ever.

Webex helps you move critical communications to the cloud with the features, security, and quality you need. This fantastic collaboration tool makes it easier than ever to connect people and teams – anytime, anywhere, and from any device.

It supports HD videoconferences with up to 1,000 participants, and each user has a dedicated phone number for ad hoc meetings. Features such as virtual backgrounds and noise cancellation are essential for maintaining a professional image.

On the other hand, when you connect to a new network, the Webex App automatically updates your location. So, it's understandable that users might want to change the meeting place. This article will help them do that with ease. Here's how!

Change the Webex meeting location

Here, we'll show you the correct steps for Windows and Mac users to help you change your Webex meeting location. If your email address is associated with multiple Webex sites, you can start and schedule meetings through any Webex site you choose to use.

For Windows users

Step 1: Access your settings by clicking on your profile picture.

Step 2: Choose your conference.

Step 3: Click Edit next to the default Webex site URL, and then select the Webex site to use for starting and scheduling meetings. Click Update.

Step 4: Choose the "Save" option.

For Mac users

Step 1: Click on your profile picture; you will be redirected to the Settings page.

Step 2: Choose different conferences.

Step 3: Click Edit under the default Webex site URL, select the Webex site that you want, and then click Update.

Step 4: When you're done, click Save.

Edit the Webex meeting location in your calendar

You can modify the details of a scheduled meeting through the Webex app. Your calendar will be updated, and you'll receive a new meeting invitation to notify participants of the change. Here's how to edit the meeting location in the Webex app calendar:

For desktop users

Step 1: Go to the “Meetings” section.

Step 2: To view the meeting details, open Calendar and double-click the meeting that you want to view.

Step 3: You can also right-click the meeting and select Edit from the menu that appears.

Step 4: After making changes to the meeting details, such as the date or time, click Update.

Step 5: Choose whether to send the updated meeting invitation to all attendees, only to the new ones you've added, or — if you've added or removed guests from the meeting — skip sending the update altogether.

Step 6 Even if you don't add or remove attendees, the updated meeting request goes out to everyone.

Important: If someone else invites you to a Webex meeting, you can't edit the location.

For mobile users

Step 1: Open the Meetings section in the Webex app.

Step 2: Tap the event in Calendar to view its details, then tap the Edit button that appears.

Step 3: After making changes to the meeting details (such as changing the date or time, or adding or removing attendees), click Update.
