*When the waiting room for participants has been enabled, the participants won't be able to enter the meeting. Participants will be in a virtual waiting room, and, as the host, you can manually grant them permission. This is an additional layer of security for the meeting.
Note that you cannot invite participants beforehand and must invite them on the go.
