Is your team using Rainbow for a project? Join a Bubble that brings everyone together in one conversation. Bubbles are the focal point of project communication and bring messages, shared files, and Web Conferences together in one place.
The Owner of a Bubble has several options to allow you to join the group conversation. It allows you to quickly join a Bubble even if you don't have a Rainbow account.
