Some people need to request permission before they can join the video meeting. For details, go to Join a video meeting.
Add people during a video meeting
While in the meeting, you can invite others to join. For meetings organised through personal Google Accounts, only the meeting organiser can admit participants.
- Google Workspace users: To admit someone who isn’t in your organisation, someone from within your organisation must admit the invited participant.
- Open the Meet app and join a meeting.
- At the top left, tap the meeting name.
- On the 'People' tab, to send the meeting details to other participants, tap Share joining info .
Remove people during a video meeting
- At the top left, tap the meeting name or meeting code.
- Next to the participant that you want to remove, tap Actions .
- Tap Remove .
- On the box that opens, select one or more of the following options:
- To just remove a participant, select Remove.
- To remove and mark a participant as abusive, select Fill in an abuse report.
- To make sure that a participant doesn't rejoin the same meeting, select Block.
- Important: If you block a user, they are only blocked from the current meeting or concurrent meetings that use the same meeting code. They can still join other meetings that you host. To allow users to rejoin a meeting that they are blocked from, they must be manually re-invited from within the meeting.
Google Workspace for Education users: If a participant's requests to join a meeting are denied twice, they won't be able to request to join the meeting again. In these cases, the meeting organiser can manually invite them back into the meeting.
