Let people in

Choose who can get in#

When you start or schedule a meeting, Who can get in has three options:

• Waiting room — you admit each person.
• Open join — anyone with the link comes straight in.
• Signed-in only — people need a Glow Meetings account to join.

You can also add a Passcode as a second check on top of the link.

When someone is waiting#

When someone asks to join, hosts and co-hosts see a Waiting room alert on the meeting stage and hear a soft chime. The desktop apps also show a system notification if the Glow Meetings window isn't in front.

For each person, the alert shows their name and whether they're a Guest or Signed in.

• Select Admit to let them in.
• Select Deny to turn them away.
• Select Admit all when more than one person is waiting.

You can also find everyone who's waiting under People, in the Waiting list.

Lock the meeting#

To stop anyone new from coming straight in, open People and turn on Lock meeting. New people then wait for you to admit them, even with open join. People already in the meeting stay.

If someone was denied#

A person you deny can choose Ask to join again, which puts them back in the waiting room. You'll be alerted again.
