Hey!
Anyone else having issues with the Teams meeting policy for participants and guests not taking effect or just not working as supposed to?
I am doing some testing and ran into an issue with these settings. That is, let anonymous start a meeting and auto admit everyone (this was assigned to a meeting organizer last night).
It seems to be OK (yay) as the organizer gets this prompt (the guest in this case is a gmail.com user)
But when joining the meeting as organizer it's not started. The anon guest(s) is actually waiting in the lobby. And from the gmail.com users Teams session it's not started either, just waiting "we'll let people know.."
Tried in desktop and web, same behavior.
In general I get the feeling that the settings for a separate meeting (the meeting options that a end-user can set per meeting) doesn't work either, or at least it's buggy.
Any feedback appreciated.
Thanks!
PeterRising Hello mate! Guess what? It's working!
I've done nothing since Friday, so I suppose it was a case of waiting for it to take effect (but it shouldn't take that long!).

In our case we needed to simulate > 1 person clicking the meeting link. If it feels like the autoAdmittedUsers / lobbyBypassScope / lobbyBypassSettings attributes are ignored; open 2 (incognito) tabs (different browsers?) and paste in the url into both. First instance = appears stuck in the lobby; Second instance = the meeting is then started and both instances join. HTH

Hey there. My Global Teams meeting policy is as follows,
I scheduled a Teams meeting and invited a Gmail user. I then started the meeting as the Gmail user and then joined as me. No waiting in lobby. Meeting worked just fine for both participants.

PeterRising Hello friend! Thanks for the reply!
My issue is that I cannot let anonymous people directly in (@gmail.com or @outlook.com for example) without having them waiting in the lobby. I believe your Gmail user is already a guest user in your AAD? If not, the user should be 'anonymous' and not be able to start the meeting per the setting you've configured.
Everyone in your organization Authenticated users from within the organization, including guest users, join the meeting directly without waiting in the lobby. Users from trusted organizations and anonymous users wait in the lobby. This is the default setting. I've configured "Let anonymous people start a meeting" to On and "Automatically admit people" to Everyone. Still the anonymous user cannot start the meeting. It looks like it (see previous screenshot) but it's a no go.
It's driving me crazy..
Hey mate. Ah that would make the difference. My Gmail is indeed already a guest. I'll give it a try with another Gmail account and see what results I get. Will be tomorrow when I next get the chance now though. I'll let you know though!
