Hi RealTime_M365 !

 

I did everything again on Monday afternoon!

1.made a new policy (lobby.policy.png) according to the https://docs.microsoft.com/en-US/microsoftteams/meeting-policies-in-teams?WT.mc_id=TeamsAdminCenterCSH#bkparticipantsandguests.

1.1.turn off/false the "Allow dial-in users to bypass the lobby"

1.2. set "Everyone in your organization" in "Automatically admit people"

2. assigned this "lobby policy" to a test user(Iván Csenge) (lobby_policy2.png)

 

 (waited more than 24 hours)

 

3. This user made(this morning) a scheduled meeting and everybody can by-pass the lobby.

3.1. checked the "meeting options" (lobby_policy3.png)

 

 

-There is no message in the advisory on the O365 portal

-For security reason we do not allow the external and guest users. BUT we would like to use this lobby function.

 

What can I do?

I’m not sure what you want to accomplish! Internal users will always bypass lobby

    Hi adam deltinger ,

     

     

    Thank you for your prompt answer.

     

    Bad news!

    Can I accomplish a "lobby-like" meeting with only internal users?

    For example, a meeting where the organizer would like to talk with the members, one after another, one by one.

        Hi!

        Thanks for the quick reply!

         

        But I dont understand it.


        As I wrote we do not allow the external and guest users. (external.png and guests.png)


        I schedule a meet up on teams channel, copy link of "Join Microsoft Teams Meeting", send the link to a user who is not internal user BUT he can join the meeting like a guest(join.png) and as you can see there is a user in the lobby.(lobby.png)

         

        Can guest users join to the scedule meet up with the link?
