Contacts and Private Calls

Zed allows you to have private calls / collaboration sessions with those in your contacts. These calls can be one-on-ones or contain any number of users from your contacts.

Adding a Contact

  1. In the collaboration panel, click the + button next to the Contacts section
  2. Search for the contact using their GitHub handle Note: The contact must be an existing Zed user who has completed the GitHub authentication flow.
  3. Your contact will receive a notification. Once they accept, you'll both appear in each other's contact list.

Private Calls

Simply click on a contact to start a private call.

Aside from a few additional features (channel notes, etc.), collaboration in private calls is largely the same as it is in channels.
