4.4 Chat Rooms

Chat rooms are set up to allow the same group of people to have a group IM session, usually on a regular basis.
For example, your system administrator may create a chat room called “Marketing” and add the marketing staff
as members. Every Monday at 8:00 a.m., each member opens the chat room on Bria and joins the conference.

You can only use chat rooms if your system administrator has set up chat rooms and added you as a member.
Chat rooms are only available on XMPP accounts.

1.

Obtain the following information from your system administrator:

The names of the chatrooms you belong to.

The passwords for the chatrooms (if applicable)

The XMPP account that must be enabled for you to use the chatroom.

2.

Choose View > Show Chat Rooms. (If the menu item does not show, make sure the appropriate XMPP
account is enabled). If you have more than one XMPP account, you will also have to select the account the
chat room belongs to.

3.

Select the appropriate account and click OK. The list of chat rooms that you belong to appears.

4.

Select the chat room and click Join Chat Room. If prompted, enter the password for the room.

The Messages window appears showing you and other people who have already joined to the chat room
session.
