How to create a nicknamed meeting
- Use a short link like g.co/meet/ENTER NICKNAME
- Go to meet.google.com or the Google Meet mobile app and enter a meeting nickname in the Join or start a meeting field
How it works
When a teacher starts a nicknamed meeting, it creates a 10-character meeting code and temporarily associates that code with the nickname.
After the last person has left the meeting or the teacher ends the meeting, the temporary meeting code expires, as well as the association between the nickname and meeting code.
If students haven’t been granted permission to create meetings, they cannot use the nickname or the meeting code. Teachers can reuse the nickname, which will create a new temporary meeting code, at which point students can use the nickname to rejoin.
