Outlook - Change the displayed meeting room capacity in location suggestions
Location suggestions in Outlook is displaying the wrong meeting room capacity. Does anyone know how to change this number?
Niclas_Gyrup Hello again, partial solution is to clear the cache in Outlook on the web (e.g. hit "x" on the suggested location) as the Outlook client populates it from there. Still no explanation on why this is happening or how to solve it org. wide. Waiting for reply.

Try setting the information via the new "places" API: https://office365itpros.com/2019/08/28/populating-locations-outlook-places-service/
VasilMichev Would you mind having a look at my description above, any clue?
*edit*
I had a look at our own "suggested locations" in Outlook and Outlook on the web and the capacity does not match what we've set (we set the capacity in the resource name as well). Is that your issue? I have checked all capacity settings in Exchange and PowerShell via Set-Place and it looks good. In Outlook on the web for example the capacity isn't displayed correctly but when hovering for it to 'pop up' then it's OK. I have no idea why some of our rooms are showing an incorrect capacity number when all settings are OK. Perhaps I need to raise a ticket with Microsoft.
This is exactly my issue. The capacity in location suggestions does not match the capacity set under resources in Exchange. If you raise a ticket with Microsoft could you share the outcome in this thread please.
