Who needs to request to join video meetings?
- People outside your organization who aren't added to the Calendar event.
- People who don’t have a Google Account (joining from the web only).
- People outside of your organization who are using G Suite for Education accounts.
Someone from your organization who’s in the video meeting can grant access.
Note: A chime sounds when the first 5 people join the meeting. There’s no chime when additional people join, but you’ll see a notification in the meeting. The new participants are automatically muted.
G Suite Essentials users
If your organization has G Suite Essentials you can join a meeting directly. Anyone outside the organization has to be admitted by the meeting participants.
G Suite for Education users
If you have a G Suite for Education account and your school type is Primary/Secondary education (K-12), you'll not be allowed to join Google Meet video calls created by non-G Suite, or personal, Google Accounts.
Anonymous users, or users not signed in to a Google Account, will not be able to join meetings organized by G Suite for Education users. However, users can still dial in using a phone. To allow anonymous users to join meetings in their domain, the admin of the G Suite for Education domain can contact G Suite support and request an exception. This exception also allows participants using interoperability services, like Pexip, to join meetings. Learn about known issues with Google Meet.
