What Video Call platform role do I need - Organisation Administrator, Team Administrator
Add-ons are tools and functions available in the Video Call platform that can be used and configured to help enhance your clinic’s interface and experience during the consultation.
Go to Configure and click on Add-ons. You will see the following default add-ons for each clinic: 
Add-on |
Description |
Example |
|
File transfer enables clinicians and callers to transfer a file within a call and needs to be an installed add-on for the clinic, prior to the call. This enables the 'Share a file' tool in Video Call Tools. Other participants will see the name of the file being shared and a download button. |
 |
|
Resizes the call screen windows so your local self view screen is smaller and the far end (caller) screen is larger. |
 |
|
Enables three highlighter annotation colours when using video call tools during a call (e.g. collaborating on a PDF or image file or a screen-share). |
 |
|
Enables participants to share more than one Video Call Tool at a time (for example, an x-ray and a pdf file). This enables 'Grid View' tools in the video call. |
 |
|
Redirects callers to an evaluation survey or web page after the call. |
 |
|
This appears in Video Call Tools and allows participants to request an additional camera from the remote end that can provide another live feed during a consult (for example, a medical scope or a second camera). |
