Abstract
Features to join an online meeting are crucial to successfully conducting the online meeting. Accordingly, embodiments are directed to restoration of such features to an online meeting generated without a join feature or an online meeting in which the join feature was never added or accidentally removed. A client application may be configured to receive an online meeting, detect an absence of metadata associated with a join feature upon analysis of the online meeting, parse a body of the online meeting to detect a collection of one or more URLs, verify each of the URLs with a HTTP get operation, and in response to a determination that a URL comprises an online meeting identifier, recreate the metadata with the URL to generate the join feature. Once restored, the join feature may be presented within an invitation for the online meeting.
