Working with the Room Member List

Use

In rooms, the Member List is the central point of entry for collaboration between room members. Depending on how the system administrator has structured the room template, the member list can be available in two variants:

Member list sorted by room roles
Member list sorted alphabetically (by last name)

The graphic below illustrates the structure and functions of both variants of the member list for a room.

Integration

As standard, the Collaboration menu for the member list provides the same services as Collaboration Launch Pad. However, your system administrator can configure a different grouping of services in the Member List to that in the CLP.

Prerequisites

The room owner has given you access permission for the page in the room that the respective member list (iView) is assigned to.
