Screen Share/Video Call Log
Logs the monthly usage of screen share, video/audio calls in your domain
Log Overview
The Screen Share/Video Call logs list the screen share, video & audio calls that have taken place in your MangoApps domain.
You MUST have the Screen Share module (Admin Portal > Modules > Setup > Screen Share) enabled on your domain for tracking the screen share logs
You MUST have the Huddle service (Admin Portal > Integrations > Huddle) enabled on your domain and should have selected MangoApps service as the huddle provider for tracking the 1-on-1 audio/video call logs on web and Windows desktop application.
The system tracks screen share/video call logs ONLY for the MangoApps service and not for other providers that MangoApps integrates with.

FAQs
How is the usage for each call calculated?
Each call usage is calculated ONLY for the streaming between all the users who have joined the screen share or video/audio call. For example -
User 1 starts the call at 11:30 AM PDT
User 2 joins the call at 11:30 AM PDT
User 3 joins the call at 11:35 AM PDT
All users leave the call at 11:45 AM PDT
The usage calculations for the call will be:
User 1 + User 2 streaming (11:30 AM to 11:35 AM) = 2 * (2-1) * 5 minutes = 10 minutes
User 1 + User 2 + User 3 streaming (11:35 AM to 11:45 AM) = 3 * (3-1) * 10 minutes = 60 minutes
Total Used Minutes = 10 + 60 = 70 minutes
The formula for usage calculation is n * (n-1) * minutes, where n is the number of users connected to the call.
Maximum 3 users are allowed to join a screen share or video/audio call at any point in time. The maximum duration that a call can last is 60 minutes.
What happens when I have used up all my subscribed minutes?
If your domain runs out of the subscribed minutes, your users receive the following notification:
"Maximum monthly allowed subscribed minutes for your domain have been used up. Contact us for more details."
You can contact your Customer Success Manager to add more minutes to your domain or write to us at support[at]mangoapps[dot]com.
What happens to the balance minutes if I don't use up all my subscribed minutes in a month?
You lose the balance minutes every month if you do not use them. MangoApps renews the subscribed minutes to 1800 minutes every month as per your billing cycle. We do NOT carry forward balance minutes.
I have 20 minutes left from my monthly 1800 subscribed minutes; I am starting a call which would last at least 45 minutes - will the call disconnect automatically after 20 minutes?
No, if you have started the call, the call will not be disconnected after you run out of your subscribed minutes. We do not disconnect an ongoing call in such a scenario although you or your users receive a notification the next time when you or they try to initiate a call after your domain has run out of subscribed minutes.
