PWA client: Add an option to join a meeting via URL

There does not seem to be a way in which I can join a meeting from the PWA client when all I have is the meeting URL.


The big red button used to start a meeting allows to join a meeting.

However, this requires the input of the meeting name.


All I have is a meeting URL, not a meeting name.

Entering the URL and clicking Join does not do the trick: this only opens a new window with the contents of the PWA client's Meetings tab, but I don't join the meeting.


I am a bit hesitant to propose this as an idea, because the function seems so obvious that I'm afraid that I'm not seeing the forest for the trees.



But just to make sure: my suggestion is to add an option to the PWA client that lets the user joing a meeting via input of the meeting URL.

    This will be addressed in v12.0.2 FP1 targeting August 2024. When selecting "Get Started > Join an existing meeting", the pasting a meeting URL will remove the https://meeting.domain.com/meeting/ and only enter the meeting name. This will support joining the meeting using copy/paste meeting url from the PWA.

    Note: The PWA only support meetings to the home meeting server. For external meeting links, a browser is needed. Example, pasting an external meeting link in the PWA chat, on selecting it will open a browser window to the url. If pasting a home server URL to chat, it will remain in the PWA client.

    I'm marking this shipped as FP1 will release in about a month. Any concerns, let me know.

    Thanks!
