Microsoft Teams Notification Sounds - Can't turn off???
I work at a rather large organization and we just switched to using Microsoft Teams. So far it has been great but what is driving me nuts is the Notification for new messages. I can't find it anywhere to turn this annoying sound off. When you have several coworkers all messaging you, I can't even wear headphones anymore it's gotten so bad. And you can't even turn it off? My options are, "Call, Mention, and Chat" , "All", "Off" How is these not separated? I would like it to be able to ring for calls but I don't need a BEEP every time someone messages me since I already get a banner and a flashing name. Please let me know if I am missing a setting somewhere.
Teams (Desktop app) - need more noticeable notifications on Teams Desktop App
At work, I have had skype as our primary messaging app for considerable years. But now, my team is moving towards using Teams group. I have Teams desktop application installed alongside Skype. In using the Teams app, I am facing a major problem of NOT noticing chat/team/group messages. The taskbar icon just has a static message counter on it. If someone messages me while I have stepped out, I won't notice the static taskbar icon and will miss it until a new message arrives or as late as the next day. It is not all noticeable. Quick replies are expected of an instant messaging app (I know it is much more than an IM app) I have never faced such an issue with Skype as the highlight on the skype taskbar icon keeps blinking until I read all the messages. There is a feature to use windows based notifications but windows notifications are not that great. Is anyone else facing such issues? Any solution is really appreciated.
Common area phone account presence
Hello Everyone, I have a few CAP accounts setup and only have them logged into Yealink MP54s. Most of them I notice the account status on the phone is Available (Green). However, I have a few that keep going to Yellow (Away). Is there a way to control the presence to keep them as Available? Or figure out why they keep going Away? I have them licensed with the Teams Shared Device license. I have the phones set to NOT go to sleep. When the phones go to Away, I can go into the settings and tap a few options, then they go back to Available. But I can't do that every day. These are part of a call queue that has to have Presence Based Routing enabled as it has a mixture of users and common area phones. Thanks for any info!Default Graph APIs or Teams Export APIs to access Teams User Private Chat for backup
Hi , Shall I use Default Graph APIs or Teams Export APIs to access Teams User Private Chat for backup ? What are your recommendations ? I am planning to use Teams Export APIs to access Teams User Private Chat for backup. These APIs are charged though, based on count of messages accessed. There are free Default Graph APIs to achieve the same goal. Functionality wise they are almost same but the free Default Graph APIs are not recommended for large scale backup. These APIs have high throttling rate.
Creating MS Teams without a meeting
Hi, I am setting up a schedule for a number of online sessions for July. These sessions will be online support sessions for students, they can just log in if they need any support. I have the schedule now nearly complete and just want to create links what we can send out to students, but I don't really want these all appearing in my calendar, and I won't be attending them myself. Is it possible for me to set up these links, and send it out to the academic(s) and the students? If I click on the +New Meeting, it will set up the meeting in my outlook calendar as well, and if I click on the Meet Now, I can't set up the dates×. Thank you.

Connect teams and old Skype name
Hey there! Glad to see the consumer Skype to Teams interoperability is working, I really appreciate that feature! My question is how do I contact a Skype user who hasn't set up an email address? Old Skype users simply have a username, and some of them haven't connected a Microsoft account. Is there a way to contact them through Teams? Thanks for any help you can offer.
Guests cannot be invited
I have had the problem for some time now that guests cannot be invited to a team chat. Guest access is activated. If an attempt is made to add external persons to the team, the following message is displayed: "No match found" Microsoft remote connection check has also already been tested for Teams (Teams: Guest login) "Microsoft-Remoteverbindungsuntersuchung" At the moment I can't explain this behavior and I can't find a solution. Can anyone give me tips on how to solve this problem?
