Meeting access for external participants without organizer
Hi all, is it possible to organize a meeting in teams, where external participants can join the meeting and start it without the organizer being present? We place professionals and our client...
Mitchell Bakker we only use the Global Policy as standard throughout the organisation.
ChrisHoardMVP we tested that too, even if we set "Bypass Lobby" to "Everyone", the external attendees have to wait for someone to start the meeting and come in.
The external participants only use the web version of teams.
Thanks for the answers!
Your settings for the Global policy look correct - however, did you check that the meeting organisers have that global policy assigned?
(I have seen in some cases one of the other policies is assigned, for historical reasons, because the users were originally using Teams before the global meeting policy existed.)

Rob Ellis thanks for the advice.
I had double-checked it, re-assigned myself and looked at my assigned policies, but only the Global Policy is assigned in my profile (as it should be).Unfortunately, a guest still cannot join the meeting without me. I get the message that a guest has started the meeting, but that's it.
