New features

• Improved scheduling user interface: When creating a meeting, the settings are now spread over three tabs on the user interface:

  • Meeting details: for the time, date and participants.
  • Additional settings: to apply any changes to meeting settings from the default values or from the selected template. The Conference Name Prefix can now be optionally populated automatically based on the meeting title.
  • Breakout rooms: to set up breakout room for the meeting.
• Support for right-to-left (RTL) languages: The Scheduler for Web portal interface now supports languages that are written from right to left such as Arabic and Hebrew.
• You can use SCIM to synchronize corporate user accounts to the participants list in the Scheduler for Web portal. See Using SCIM to synchronize participants for more information.
• Automatically dialing out to a participant: You can now configure a meeting to automatically dial out to one or more participants, for example a SIP endpoint, when a Host participant joins the meeting. See Meeting participants for more information.
• On the Meetings page, you can now change the list view between All, Upcoming and Past meetings.
• If a user has the Can add meeting permission, they now see a Schedule meeting button on the Calendar page.
• Scheduler for Web now requires a system license that permits basic operation of the platform. See Licenses for more information.
• In Global settings > General you can now specify the default URL of the webapp. This is used to generate links to the webapp on the calendar page and in email notifications, and can be referenced via the new {{ default_webapp_url }} variable in your email templates.
• Users can now join a meeting directly from the Calendar view.
• Dynamic RTMP stream URLs are now supported. See RTMP streams for more information.

Version 4.0.0

Version 4.0.0 was released in April 2025 and includes the following new features, improvements and resolved issues.

Prerequisite

Pexip Infinity version 35 or later.

New features

• Calendar view: The Pexip Secure Scheduler for Web portal has a new Calendar page where you can view, in calendar format, any scheduled meetings that you (your signed-in portal user) has been assigned to as a participant. The Meetings page shows only the meetings that you have access to view and/or edit based on permissions set by Access groups or administrator status.
• Recurring meetings: When creating or editing a meeting, there is a new option Make recurring on the Start-End Time page. Select Make recurring to view and edit the recurrence preferences.
• Meeting templates: There is a new option Meetings > Create From Template which allows you to create a meeting based on previously designed templates that contain preconfigured settings. You must first add one or more templates in Meeting settings > meeting template. You can also create a template when editing an existing meeting, or when creating a new meeting by selecting Save as Template.
• Send test email: When editing the SMTP server settings in the scheduling portal, you can now send a test email to the provided email address to ensure that the configuration is correct.
• Send cancellation emails: When deleting meetings, you now have the option to send emails notifying participants of the cancellation. Participants can then choose to remove the event from their calendar.
• Generate alias: When you invite an ad hoc participant, if you do not want to manually add an alias, there is a new Generate alias button which generates a random alias for that participant.

• Default response type: In Global settings > General > Default response type, you can set the default action that occurs when someone dials an unknown alias, or enters an unknown Meeting ID or video address from a Pexip Secure Scheduler for Web joining link.

  If you set this to continue and someone dials an unknown alias, Pexip Infinity looks for the alias in its internal database. If a matching VMR is located, the call is allowed to continue. If you set this to reject and someone dials an unknown alias, the call is not allowed to continue, even if there is a VMR matching that alias in your Pexip Infinity deployment.

General improvements and resolved issues

• The URL for downloading the latest version of Pexip Secure Scheduler for Web has changed from https://dl.pexip.com/courtscore/ to https://dl.pexip.com/scheduling-core/
• At https://dl.pexip.com/scheduling-core/, you can now download the recording, interpreter, and courts-control plugins that are used with the Pexip Secure Scheduler for Web application. The courts-control plugin provides a start hearing button that when selected moves participants from their breakout rooms into the main room. Selecting the button again (pause hearing) returns participants to their respective breakout rooms.
• In the scheduling portal, a newly added participant now receives a random PIN code if PIN code is selected as the authentication method. You can edit the random PIN code if you need to. Previously, the PIN code field remained empty until you manually added a PIN.
• For participants who have PIN code as their authentication method, the PIN itself is now hidden by default in the PIN field in the scheduling portal.
• When editing a meeting, there is a new button to Save and send email invitations.

• Meetings can now use a different theme for breakout rooms instead of them using the same theme as the main room. You can configure this in Edit meeting > VMR settings > Breakout room theme. If no breakout room theme is selected, the breakout room will inherit the same theme as the main room.

• You cannot delete a participant that is still assigned to a scheduled meeting as you must delete or edit the meeting first. Now, when you attempt to delete this participant you will be able to see what meetings they are currently still assigned to so that you can manage those meetings first.
• Table contents in the scheduling portal are now sorted alphabetically regardless of upper or lower case.
• In previous upgrades, you had to manually move any translation files over to the new version of Pexip Secure Scheduler for Web. Now, the translation files are automatically carried over as part of the upgrade.
• In a previous version, unattended automatic OS security updates were unintentionally enabled by default. This has now been fixed and unattended automatic OS security updates are disabled.

• During the installation wizard of the Pexip Secure Scheduler for Web application, admins can now configure:

  • a session duration timeout
  • a log retention period
  • an external syslog server
• Accessibility improvements.
