Could the experience of a user joining a meeting please also be described, and the interactions of the related settings? I have external and guest access set on, but an external invitee could not access a meeting yesterday, and I'm not sure if that is because anonymous is turned off.

Hello @LanaChin as the referenced article where this issue was created talks about the needed settings to manage anon access, it does not seem the right place to add how is the experience of an anon user. Something more like this but for anon, do you know if an article will be created or can we just add a note to current article describing anonymous capabilities on a meeting?
Thank you
