A conference call ID has been created by your administrator in the Conferences app and video conferencing is enabled. If you have already used the conferencing app in Monster UI, these conferences will display, but you will need to enable video conferencing for each existing setup. For more details, refer to the quick reference to how to set this up provided below.
