Connecting to a Video Call:
There are a number of reasons why you might experience difficulty connecting to a call. These steps will help to resolve some of the most common connectivity issues.
1. I am trying to connect to a call, but can't...
When connected to a video call in the platform, the video window will have the word 'Connected' in the bottom right corner.

If you are connected but are unable to see the other party, please follow the prompt on the screen and wait in the call until the other participant(s) join.
If you are connected, and it is past the time the session was meant to begin, you can try exiting the call and rejoining the session. You can do this by clicking on the red phone icon to close the video window, and then clicking on the "Re-launch Video Session button" at the bottom left of the browser window page
