ad-hoc Teams meetings with external users
- Apr 03, 2020
Ok let's help!
1.) In the Teams Admin Centre go into Meeting Policy and ensure that Anonymous users can join a meeting is on2.) In the Teams Admin Centre ensure that external user access is enabled in org wide settings
3.) Create the meeting
4.) In the meeting booking go into meeting settings and ensure that everyone can bypass the lobby
Should be a nice friction free meeting when they click on join teams in the meeting invitation. They don't have to be guests: guests should only be created when you want people to work in your team in your tenant
Let me know how you get on. Note; the policy above (if it is turned off) could take up to 24 hours to propagate
Hope that answers your question
Best, Chris

ChrisHoardMVP Hi Chris! Sorry for the delay but it took a long time today for the policy change to take effect. It is working perfectly and it is just what we needed. Stay safe and have a great weekend!
