Wait in the meeting lobby
The meeting lobby is an online waiting area. The meeting leader can control access to the meeting, or admit someone who doesn’t have the correct meeting credentials. People in the lobby can be admitted singly or all at the same time.
If the meeting leader has enabled the meeting lobby, you’ll need to wait until the meeting leader admits you to the meeting.
