Consent page link types
Who’s this for?
When setting up a profile to use the Gong consent page, you can set the type of meeting link to be static or dynamic. This article tells you everything you need to know about static and dynamic links, and which type to choose for your organization.
Personal static links, meaning the link is always the same for a single organizer for all their meetings, are used when setting a meeting in a personal meeting room. Setting up meetings with static links and using the Gong consent page can be done either manually, or by using the Gong calendar add-in.
Tip
Gong can add a unique token as a suffix to static links to increase protection against unwanted meeting intrusions. Turn on protected static links when enabling the consent page. There's also the option to set up a transition period of 90 days so that links to scheduled meetings don't break.
Note that if your team has scheduled meetings, they'll need to update the static link in those meeting invitations when you change to protected static links.
Dynamic links are currently available for Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams and Webex.
Dynamic links are considered more secure than static links because there’s a unique link for every meeting and therefore only people with the link can join your meeting. There is no risk of overlapping recordings because a new recording is started for each meeting. In addition, including dial-in information in the meeting invite for participants to give consent before connecting to the meeting by phone is supported.
Your organization must have an active Gong-web conference system integration (see supported providers), and install the Gong calendar add-in. The add-in generates a unique dynamic link for each meeting.
As an advanced option, you can allow the meeting host to decide whether to set up meetings using a static or dynamic consent page link. For every meeting, the host can either manually copy their static consent page link into the meeting invite, or they can use the Gong calendar add-in to generate a unique dynamic link.

* The static link of the call host’s personal meeting room is automatically associated by Gong to the static link of the Gong consent page. (This means that when the call host sets up a meeting in their personal meeting room, participants will be taken to the Gong consent page before joining the meeting.) For Zoom, your org must have an integration with Zoom's API for auto-sync.
** With this web conferencing provider, the “opt-out” option is unavailable. Participants must give their consent to be recorded in order to join the meeting - if they don’t consent, they cannot join the meeting.
