Join requests and capacity

Request-only activities, host approval and what Full means.

Some public activities ask you to request a spot. You see the date, time and general area up front; the exact meetup location unlocks once the host approves you.

  • A pending request shows as Requested on the activity, and you can withdraw it and request again later.
  • Approval makes you Going and sends you a notification.
  • A decline sends no notification. The activity shows Request declined, and you cannot request it again.

Hosts can cap the group with a participant limit. A full activity leaves Explore and shows Full on its page. There is no waitlist: when someone leaves, the spot opens and the activity reappears.
