Conduct a Glance Video Session

To join a Glance Video session, Glance recommends that you place a clickable element, such as a link, button, or other object, at the footer of every web page. An agent can then ask the visitor to scroll to the bottom of whatever page they are on and click that element to start a session. See this page for more information on creating a Cobrowse button.

To join a Glance Video session:

1. The visitor clicks the element to start a session.

2. The visitor receives a prompt to allow access to the camera. Once allowed, they will see the session code to provide to the agent.

3. The agent enters the code in the Agent Join Page or CRM.

4. Depending how the group is configured, the agent will join with video on automatically, or they can click the Video icon in the agent viewer to turn on their camera. Now the visitor and agent can see each other.

5. The visitor and agent can move from small or large video modes by clicking the resize icon.

Adding a Guest

If additional participants would like to join the session, the agent can send the guest an invite to join the video session.

1. To add guests, as the agent, click the Add Guest button in the top-right corner of the agent viewer.

2. Click the copy button next to the URL and send it to the guests.

3. The guest will be prompted to turn on their camera and enter their name. The guest can choose which camera they want to use from the gear icon.

4. Once the guest enters their name, a code is displayed.

5. The agent enters the guest’s code in the Add Guest field and clicks Admit.

6. If needed, the agent can turn off video for guests or visitors by clicking the Video off icon.

7. The agent can also eject the guest by clicking the Eject button.
