The waiting room feature allows hosts to control which participants can join the session. Participants land in an area outside the meeting room, just like waiting in the hallway outside of a closed meeting or classroom.
The host gets notified at the top of the meeting window that participants are waiting, and admits individuals to the room at an appropriate time. Participants in the waiting room can be renamed by the hosts and co-hosts before they enter the meeting.
Account owners and admins can automatically move participants to the Waiting Room if the host or alternative host leaves. They can also configure the settings to automatically admit those participants back into the meeting when the host or alternative host returns. The setting for this featue is located in Settings > Meeting > Security > Waiting Room Options > Edit Options.
