Meeting size limits - Amazon Chime

Meeting size limits

A maximum of 250 attendees can join Amazon Chime meetings scheduled by users with Amazon Chime Pro permissions. If you want to use auto-call, you must include meet@chime.aws in the meeting invite.

However, meeting invitations can include a maximum of 300 attendees. Amazon Chime supports that number because some attendees decline the meeting, some don't join the meeting, and some drop out of the meeting.

Auto-call doesn't count as an attendee. Distribution lists count as single attendees unless you expand them. Also, you must expand distribution lists if you want to use auto-call.

If you invite more than 300 individual users:

  • Amazon Chime disables auto-call and notifies the meeting organizer.

  • Attendees must join the meeting manually at the scheduled time.

  • Attendess do not see the meeting name or scheduled ending time.

  • The Attendees panel and its subsections, such as Invited and dropped, can display a combined maximum of 300 items. If the panel reaches the 300-item limit, or 250 attendees connect to the meeting, new attendees receive a "meeting full" notice and can't join the meeting.
