# Add a virtual room using a custom link

If you haven't [set up any virtual room providers](/totara-20/docs/configure-virtual-room-providers), or if you want to use a virtual room URL from another tool/site, you can follow these steps:

1. Click **Select rooms**.
2. Select **Create**.
3. Give your virtual room a **Name** and enter the room's **Capacity**.
4. Select **Custom virtual room link** from the **Virtual room provider** dropdown list.
5. Enter your URL in the **Virtual room link** field.
6. Optionally add a **Description**.
7. Click **OK** to add the virtual room, then **Save changes**.

For this option you will need to create the virtual room separately, and then assign it to your seminar event using this method.
