To join a meeting using your browser, Challo requires access to your microphones and cameras.
When you join a meeting for the first time, your browser prompts you because Challo wants to use your microphone and camera.
The way that your browser prompts you to ask for permission depends on the browser that you are using. Typically, click Allow, to let Challo use your microphone and camera.
If you do not see the prompt, or do not allow Challo to use your microphone and camera, you have to change your browser permissions.
Use the following table to change your camera and microphone permissions for the Challo website—https://app.cafex.com

After changing the permissions, you have to reload the meeting, so that Challo can request to use your microphone and camera again.
