Hello,
Is it possible to force end a meeting after a certain amount of time?
So for example if a meeting is scheduled to last an hour is it possible to have a countdown and cut them off?
Thanks
Paul

Unfortunately, that is not possible.

Human intervention required.

As the others said there is no way to force end a meeting. You can however put time limits on breakout rooms which will automatically close them. Might help your situation might not. You can also send "end meeting" via API if you know how to set a delay for the call and have the ability to use APIs.

Funnily, it seems we now have an opposite problem in 2024. People report that with a scheduled meeting the meeting forcefully ends with the planned end time!
