Jitsi-meet: Ability to force users to set a meeting password

[SamuelNitsche]

Hey, is there a way to force users to set a meeting password? I know that secure domains exist..
Thanks in advance!

Please use the community forum for questions or problems before opening new issues.

No, there is no such feature.

@damencho: Why closing this then? It is a feature request.

@damencho
Thank you :slightly_smiling_face:

By the way, this would really be a useful feature, in combination with point 4 & 5 of #5653

1. Fix the password-setting UX. [...]
2. Allow passwords to be set before room creation.

I am :-1: on this. I summarized my thoughts about meeting room passwords at https://github.com/jitsi/jitsi-meet/issues/5407#issuecomment-619424553

-1 even if this would be an option?

[kousu]

Yeah. The more options added to a UI the harder it is to use. I think there should either be meeting passwords only or long room names only but not both.

The more options added to a UI

Sorry, I meant an option inside javascript files for configuration to toggle the ability.

I have installed a jitsi testerver, I am faily new to this wonderfull open source program.
I setup that:

• The organizer must log in to jitsi server when a room is created
• All users have to specify thair name
• it would be very handy to have the option to force the organzer to set a password (discussed here) for each created room (others can then only access a room via the defined password).

Currently, after login, the orgnanizer will get a message titled "share" where one defines the password for the room. After a password is set, I can click "copy" to store the URL and room name to the clipboard.

After I paste from the clipboard, I only see the server url with the room name, e.g. https://meet.jitsi.de/testroom99 . The previous set password is not stored to the clipboard

Add feature 1: When one clicks "copy", then the link, with the room name and password is stored to the clipboard, then can then be pasted to an email message which one sends to the participants.

Add feature 2: store a standard text into the configuraton file.

When one clicks "copy", then this text is placed the clipboard, together with the url, room name and password. e.g.:

Hi,
to join our meeting, please copy and paste this link to your browser:
https://meet.jitsi.de/testroom99
The password for the meeting is T@stP@ssw0rd2020
Best

The meeting creator

Best

@tapadminde since your requests are off-topic, please search for the request for those features and open new issues respectively if you cannot find them, thanks.

Is it possible as part of this feature request to consider the following config options:

• A flag to make the password mandatory for all meetings
• a config for password complexity, length or regex..

@luixxiul @damencho Is it possible to disable the stale bot for feature requests (and valid bugs)?
I understand that support requests and unvalidaded bug reports might be closed after a while of no activity, but imo this should not apply to feature requests and valid bug reports.
