Use a Jamboard device in a video meeting

You can hold a video meeting on a Jamboard. Before using Jamboard for meetings, turn on Google Meet with Jamboard. If your board doesn’t display Meet  in the top right, your administrator must set up Jamboard for video meetings.

A Jamboard can stream video from up to 3 participants. Remaining participants appear with video disabled. Unless intentionally disabled, users on other types of devices can see all video streams.

Tip: To make sure you don't join a meeting with an expired code and to better plan for the future meetings you create, check when meeting codes expire. Learn about Google Meet meeting codes.
