<a name="other-actions"></a>

You use the **Other actions** menu to take additional actions during an Amazon Chime meeting. The actions available depend on your role in the meeting. For example, attendees can adding other attendees or change their notifications during a meeting. Organizers, hosts, and delegates can lock or record meetings, mute other attendees, and more.

**To use attendee actions**

1. On the left control bar, choose the ellipsis menu (**...**).

1. Choose any of the following:
   + Choose **Add attendee** to add someone to a meeting.
   + Choose **Notify for all meeting events** to receive event notifications. By default, Amazon Chime notifies meeting hosts when:
     + Attendees join or leave a meeting.
     + When network issues cause an attendee to drop from a meeting.
     + When attendees decline a meeting.

     However, in event mode, Amazon Chime turns these notifications off by default. For more information about event mode and meeting events, see the next list of actions and [Hosting meetings](chime-organizer-call-controls.md).
