# Lobby.AccessPolicy

> Lobby.AccessPolicy

Gets the access policy of the lobby.

```csharp theme={null}
public LobbyAccessPolicy AccessPolicy { get; }
```

## Return Value

The access policy of the lobby.

## Remarks

If this lobby object was created by calling [`JoinLobby`](https://docs.xbox.com/services/playfab/multiplayer/lobby/unity-multiplayer-api-reference/PlayFab.Multiplayer/PlayFabMultiplayer/JoinLobby), this method returns `LobbyAccessPolicy.Public` until [`ProcessLobbyStateChanges`](https://docs.xbox.com/services/playfab/multiplayer/lobby/unity-multiplayer-api-reference/PlayFab.Multiplayer/PlayFabMultiplayer/ProcessLobbyStateChanges) provides a [`OnLobbyUpdated`](https://docs.xbox.com/services/playfab/multiplayer/lobby/unity-multiplayer-api-reference/PlayFab.Multiplayer/PlayFabMultiplayer/OnLobbyUpdated) with the `OnLobbyUpdated accessPolicyUpdated` set to true. If joining the lobby succeeds, this field is guaranteed to be populated by the time [`ProcessLobbyStateChanges`](https://docs.xbox.com/services/playfab/multiplayer/lobby/unity-multiplayer-api-reference/PlayFab.Multiplayer/PlayFabMultiplayer/ProcessLobbyStateChanges) provides a [`OnLobbyJoinCompleted`](https://docs.xbox.com/services/playfab/multiplayer/lobby/unity-multiplayer-api-reference/PlayFab.Multiplayer/PlayFabMultiplayer/OnLobbyJoinCompleted).
