RingCentral Meetings Plugin for Google Calendar does not allow join before host

Issue: When creating a meeting in Google Calendar and adding RingCentral Meetings to it, the option to allow attendees to join before the host is not honored, even when it is configured inside the RingCentral Meetings application.  The message looks like this: ​

Analysis: We confirmed the behavior through several computers and several meetings.  However, if the RingCentral Meetings application is used to create the meeting, it then opens Google Calendar and the "join before host" option does propagate.

Recommendations: For the time being, use the RingCentral Meetings application to create meetings.  It is guaranteed to work.

Next Steps: We are awaiting resolution of this issue, which involves both RingCentral and Google engineers.
