Bypass Lobby not working
We set up a lot of meetings on behalf of clients. We are choosing the option that everyone can bypass the lobby however it doesn't seem to work most of the time. I tested it a few times with a person from outside my org and it doesn't work, they go into the lobby every time.
Any ideas on what I can do? Frustrating for both us and clients.
Thanks

DebraW5 : Could be related to what you are experiencing. Thought to share it to help on this issue:
External Users / Guests are able to bypass lobby – Microsoft Teams meeting
- No, this still hasn't rectified the issue unfortunately
DebraW5 Hello, I assume that you're talking about an anonymous user here? That is someone who's not signed into Teams but rather simply joins using a meeting link with a browser? (they type in a name in a meeting join prompt first).
To bypass the lobby and enter automatically as an anonymous user -> without having a user from the own organization already in the meeting <- you have to allow the second one here as well. If you're not toggling the second one, there has to be an org. user in the meeting for these users to bypass the lobby automatically. The first one is simply about if they are even allowed to join meetings.
- Hello
Just to confirm, the person that is the organizer of these meetings has "Everyone" in "Automatically admit people", right?AndresGorzelany Hi, yes that's right
- Thanks for clarifying.
Is this happening also in newly scheduled meetings?
