Intro

Joining a miingl session is designed to be quick and low-pressure, even if it’s your first time.

This guide walks you through how to find a session, join as a participant, and enter the space feeling oriented and ready to engage. A short video is included if you prefer to watch instead of read.

What This Helps You Do

By following this guide, you’ll be able to:

• Find a public miingl event or suite

• Join a session as a participant or guest

• Set up your name, camera, and audio

• Enter the space and begin participating
  

Watch The Video (Optional)

If you’d rather watch the process, this short video shows exactly how joining a miingl session works from start to finish.

Step 1: Find A Public Event Or Suite

Start by visiting miingl.com and opening the Public Events area.

Here you’ll see:

• Public workshops and events

• Open suites you can enter right away

You can also join a session using a direct link if one was shared with you.

Choose something that looks interesting—there’s no wrong place to start.

Step 2: Choose Where To Enter

• A Digital Office (an always-open suite), or

• A specific event listing with details

Click Enter Suite to join right away, or open the event page if you want more context before entering.

Step 3: Join As A Guest Or Participant

When you enter, you’ll be prompted to join the session.

Depending on the space, you may:

• Click Join as a Guest, or

• Enter your name and email address to continue

You do not need to create an account to join most public sessions.

Step 4: Take A Photo And Set Up Audio And Video

Before entering the space, you’ll complete a short setup:

• Add a display name so others know who you are

• Take a quick photo, which becomes your avatar if your camera is off
  

• 
  

• Enable your camera and microphone

• Choose your audio and video settings

This step helps ensure you’re recognizable and comfortable once inside. You can change these settings later if needed.

Step 5: Enter The Space

Once setup is complete, click Enter Suite to join the session.

You’ll arrive in a shared space where you can:

• See who’s present

• Observe ongoing conversations

• Join a group when you’re ready

You’re never required to speak immediately. Take a moment to look around and get your bearings.

Helpful Tips For First-Time Participants

• It’s okay to observe before joining a conversation

• Movement is expected—you won’t interrupt anyone by joining or leaving

• Turning your camera on makes it easier for others to connect with you

• You can always adjust your audio or video settings later

miingl works best when you engage at your own pace.
