Details:

Updated August 2, 2023: We have updated the rollout timeline below. Thank you for your patience.
Currently in Public webinars, you are unable to distinguish registered users in the lobby. This means that you cannot allow registered users to directly bypass your lobby and enter your webinar. With this new change, we will be offering two new lobby options that will allow you to better control security in your webinar. These new lobby options are:

A new 'Allow registered users to bypass' lobby policy that allows registered users to bypass the lobby in your webinar.
A new 'Reject users who cannot bypass the lobby' that rejects users who cannot bypass the lobby.
Both options are only available for Webinars.
This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 125881

[When this will happen:]

We will begin rolling out in mid-May 2023 and expect to complete rollout by mid-August 2023 (previously late June).
