Hi DanyStoeckli ,

This is not possible AFAIK. Currently there is only the option to play another greeting when the user is OOF. The following blog post from Linus Cansby outlines what seetings Teams offer with regards to voicemail:

Thank you for your answer.

Is it possible to set this rule over powershell as well or is it currently only working over the Teams Client itself? Maybe over a calling policy?

Hi DanyStoeckli,

setting call forwarding for user is currently not possible for an admin.
This is highly requested but not available now.
