An invite-only meeting (
) is a type of meeting in which only the meeting creator can admit uninvited participants into the meeting.
Note: Invite-only meeting is currently not supported on MiTeam Meetings mobile application.
Registered users invited to the meeting are admitted to the meeting directly. A registered user is considered invited only if the meeting creator invites them to the meeting by doing either of the following:
- By clicking the Invite icon from the meetings control panel during an ongoing meeting.
- By entering their name or email address in the corresponding field while creating the meeting.
Registered users and guests who do not have an invite but want to join an invite-only meeting must wait in the waiting room and can join the meeting only after the meeting creator admits them into the meeting. For more information regarding which users will go to the waiting room, see the FAQ Who goes to the waiting room before joining a meeting?

- From the panel that opens, click Participants. The Participants dialog box opens.
- Hover over the participant whose invite you want to cancel, and click the
icon. The Cancel invite pop-up appears.
