So if you haven’t been watching NCUG (why not! Well done Hogne it’s been really good), Thomas Hampel announced that a new feature DOMI will be available within days on GitHub for free.
It’s a small update to a mail template, and allows your Notes calendar to integrate with Teams, Zoom, GoTo Meeting and Sametime seamlessly.
So when creating a new meeting, within Notes, you can create Teams, Zoom, GoTo Meeting, Webex and Sametime meetings directly within your Notes client.
The URLs/passwords etc get inputted automatically when you hit the “Schedule Online Meeting” of your choice, and an OAuth dance is done in the background securely. No other client can do this out of box. A big seller for Outlook Deployments is it’s integration with Teams, you can now do exactly the same with Notes (including 2FA) as well as for four other Meeting platforms.
Some ambassadors have been aware of this, and been testing including myself (we were covered under NDA until this annoucement), and I have to say it works exceptionally well and is easy to deploy.
This is such a welcome development, both in the product itself and the fact that it was turned around and shipped so quickly. Well done to the team developing this.
I look forward to be able to tell people to download this when it is available!

Hello,
cool stuff!
Which Domino/Client version is necessary for that?
Does a new appointment created within notes client calendar does appear visible at the teams calendar?
Cormac McCarthy says:
Hi Marco,
Thanks for the feedback!
Yes a new appointment is visible in ANY platform calendar you want, including teams. You do need to be on the notes client 11.0.1 FP3 or higher with the update to your mail template (that’s included and straight forward to deploy via domi.nsf).
You can catch the NCUG session here – https://youtu.be/SFSZjVZbtVI?list=PLl2XkRiCZlG8FxlzEyzYsrGkXOKHZDnWn
Thanks,

Maybe I am getting impatient, but when will this be released to GA? It is way past a couple of days… Hopefully I am looking in the right location on GitHub but so far nothing has been published for this…
Thanks
Cormac McCarthy says:
Hi Jason,
Thanks for the comment. There’s a lot of people waiting on it! I don’t have any further information yet (or control over this) other than what HCL have stated publicly.
The github is here https://github.com/hcl-tech-software but DOMI is not public yet. Fingers crossed it won’t be long.
Thanks,
Cormac
Jason Ferber says:
Thanks for the reply Cormac… Fingers crossed…
Thanks again
Jason Ferber says:
I see that HCL has released 12.0 on the Flex Net site and I have installed it in our test environment hoping that DOMI would be part of the package unfortunately it is not. Do you know if they may be waiting until the launch next week?
Cormac McCarthy says:
Hi Jason,
It was never planned for 12.0 as far as I know. It’ll likely be in a later full release of 12.0.x
I don’t have any other update on it being on github publicly, unfortunately though I have asked.
Thanks,
Cormac
Cormac McCarthy says:
Hi Jason,
Just to follow up.
In case you didn’t see elsewhere yesterday, it’s now public on github.
https://github.com/HCL-TECH-SOFTWARE/domino-online-meeting-integration
There are a couple of temporary limitations in place for Zoom and Webex.

What kind of network traffic must be allowed in the firewalls for this to work ? (if bypass the firewall it’s works ok) allowing this traffic it is not working for me !!! Does anybody knows which are the allowed URLs in firewall ?
Thanks
Cormac McCarthy says:
Hi Julian,
Which meeting service are you trying to connect to?
Are you trying to connect through a proxy? If so see https://opensource.hcltechsw.com/domino-online-meeting-integration/troubleshooting/ and https://support.hcltechsw.com/csm?id=kb_article&sys_id=4f9be010db7cec50a45ad9fcd39619b0&spa=1
If you’ve no luck there -your quickest solution might be to contact HCL support on same, they can likely advise.
Thanks,
Cormac
