Mesh public preview does not appear in Teams?
Hi all, I have all the licences you need for the Public Preview. In Teams Administrator, the settings are set so that I can get previews. I also see the app "Mesh Immesive Spaces" version 1.0.21., ...
So, now much more seems to work, according to the settings in Teams-Admin-Center. Thank you for your tips, which have helped a lot.
The only thing that does not work yet:
The link to Mesh in a team appointment does not work yet.
Here you have to click separately on the right mouse button and select Open separately. At the moment, this is rather a minor issue.
I am not a developer, but a Business & Sales Consultant and I develop and sell ideas to customers. I know many comparable VR/AR collaboration solutions.
Here is my personal first impression of Mesh:
Of course Mesh at this stage still has far too little functionality compared to the other solutions and also the movements of the avatars need to become smarter. And I don't mean missing legs :-).
But Microsoft already manages to make a difference and offers things that I have not yet seen in other solutions.
- That is the selection of seating arrangements, which has really been solved super simply and well.
- There is very great emphasis on high-quality good-looking spaces right from the start. That certainly increases acceptance.
- Also, the integration into Teams is already pretty good and so already unique.
I won't write about the missing and desirable functions yet, because I'm sure they will be added quickly.
The only real criticism and limitation, in my opinion, is that there is no clear statement about whether accounts outside the tenant can be invited.
That would be a great, great pity if this did not happen, because it would mean that the use cases that have a very fast ROI for companies and are critical to the company cannot be realised. Examples are virtual trade fairs, VR in the sales process, HR assessment ....
And what surprises me!
Mesh was originally MixedReality. Now it is completely Virtual Reality.
Where is Augmented?

It is completely Virtual Reality. Fingers crossed Mixed Reality comes back again. I do appreciate the team focusing on VR only at this point, so they can progress it on that track. While I loved HL2 Mesh preview app, it isn't the priority today for me and in my cases with the Mesh. In the future I would love to see Mixed + Virtual Reality in the same space. Especially when thinking about the industrial metaverse, digital twins, education/learning scenarios.
Accounts outside of the tenant can't be invited. Now is the best to think use cases for Mesh that are inside the tenant. Of course there is a workaround: having a separate tenant where accounts are provisioned for users and everyone is using those. But that that requires more licenses, more management, more automation with account, more complexity and thus more money.
