Quick access doesn't work on meet in classroom

[scuoladigitale]

Hi,

I have a big problem here. Last year we used to have personal meetings with student's parents using a classroom in which we switched off the quick access so we (teachers) could control the access. Now I have upgraded the meet link in this special classroom called "parents' meeting". Parents go into this classroom using their children account and with quick access off we could easily control the flow. Well....now it doesn't work. If they are invited in the classroom as students they can enter meet session without ask anything. We need this function working again...

If I have misunderstood you, please let me know. But my understanding is that quick access has changed within the last 2 weeks. Read https://support.google.com/edu/classroom/thread/129471323/making-google-classroom-video-meetings-eas... which is the latest information I know about Quick Access in connection to Google Classroom and Google Meet.

• Students are now able to join a meeting without knocking if a teacher is already present,even if quick access is turned off. This may be different from before,where students would have to knock even if a teacher were present, if quick access were turned off. 
• External guests (users not on the class roster) will still have to knock to join even if the teacher is present. 
• Teachers simply should not join the meeting until they are ready to be in a meeting with students. If a student tries to join before a teacher is present, they are placed in a waiting room. They are not able to communicate with each other in the waiting room. 
• Once a teacher joins, all students in the waiting room are admitted automatically, which may lead a teacher to believe students were already in the call before the teacher.

One user did notice for their domain: "I think the main issue here is when you create a new Meet link within Classroom, it is defaulting the Quick Access to Off. At least in our domain. I resolved that by turning it on in all classes one by one." URL: https://support.google.com/edu/classroom/thread/129471323/making-google-classroom-video-meetings-eas...

Hi.
The problem is that we need this quick access control to manage the flow of
parents entering in the meeting to talk about their children.

Other people miss the previous functions of quick access so others can relate to you. Please make sure to submit in-product feedback.
