Booking, attendees cannot bypass the lobby

[TherealKillerbe]

My organization uses bookings to organize some training sessions for a new application. When people enter the meeting, they are entered in the lobby, and cannot bypass the lobby to enter the meeting.

I have created a custom Teams meeting policy, and have applied the meeting policy to the meeting organizer. The custom Teams meeting policy allows everyone to bypass the lobby. I have verified that the meeting organizer gets the custom teams policy applied, but attendees are still being directed to the lobby and cannot bypass the lobby.

If you've allowed 24 hours for the policy to take effect and it's still happening on meetings created since then, you may want to open a help desk ticket with Microsoft. What you've done should work.

Thanks Kelly, eventually i found the issue. The problem was that nobody knew who the organizer was. Eventually i found the SchedulingMailbox which lead me to following article https://office365itpros.com/2022/07/22/microsoft-bookings-app/, which helped me to put the dots together. Users are experimenting with apps way before IT ever gets a chance to get acquainted with the product, yet when it fails they expect answers.
