Provide a visitor 1 time access to a recurring meeting, without giving them the recurring link

[Ellbeetee]

With a recurring monthly committee meeting, is there a way to provide access for a guest/non-committee member to attend a single instance of the monthly meeting - without giving the guest the actual recurring meeting link (or having access to the link once inside the meeting)?  As in the guest would be invited to sit in for one monthly meeting instance, before being admitted to the group. 

Hope this is clear. thanks!

Hello   @Ellbeetee

The answer would be that it depends on the current recurring meeting settings and setup. For example, if you have a recurring meeting without registration and it is for no fixed time which goes on indefinitely, as soon as you share that link anyone who has it will always be able to join that recurring meeting if you do not change any of the settings. 

I'm trying to think of a scenario with the current product that would allow you to do this but I cannot think of one. If it's the same recurring meeting and it is not modified or edited in any way, then as soon as a person (guest or otherwise) would have access to the link and if nothing is ever changed, the user would have access until something is modified on that meeting.

I hope this helps and please make sure to mark the solution as accepted if this information is what you needed.

Thank you,

Thanks for the reply! The meeting is set for 1 year, recurring at the same fixed time each month. No registration and no waiting room for these.

What I was hoping to do, was be able to have a guest join one instance of the recurring meetings without giving them the recurring meeting link. Do you think there's capability for that somehow? I realize there's just one link per meeting, but I was hoping there was some sort of 'invite visitor' link option so a guest could attend once with permission, but not have access to join regularly until they become members of the committee. As a security feature.
