Hangouts Meet can run online meetings with video, audio, and screen sharing. In addition to this guide, you can review Google's Hangouts Meet training material, which is more in-depth.

There are three ways you can create a meeting. You can create them from Meet itself, in your calendar, or in Hangouts Chat. Each method will give you a unique meeting room with an address like meet.google.com/www-xxxx-yyy. You can send that address to anyone to invite them to join.

1. Go to meet.google.com.
2. Click Join or start a meeting and give it a name.
3. You may be prompted to show notifications and allow video/audio access. Allow access.
4. You'll be given a preview of your video/audio, click Join now to enter the meeting.
5. You'll be shown a dialog for adding people to the meeting.
   1. If you hit Add people you'll be given options to invite others via email.
   2. If you hit Copy joining info you'll get the meeting URL and a dial-in phone number.
   3. You can also copy the address from the address bar and send that to others.

When you create or edit your calendar event:

1. Click Add rooms, location, or conferencing.
2. Click Add conferencing.
3. The online meeting's join information will be included in the calendar event.
4. When it's meeting time, open your calendar and click the link.
