BryanNyce has this feature been upped from 300 yet? we host social hour meetings and would love to utilize this feature for our 400+ invitee meeting (less than 250 usually attend) Very frustrating to be unable to implement the breakout rooms, even though the actual attendee count is within the 300 limitation.

No, this work is still in progress. I do not have any ETA to provide at this time.- Satish KumarMar 09, 2023Copper ContributorHi Bryan, Do we have update on this? This is one major blocker to use Teams breakout room during learning session.

Hi BryanNyce
Just to confirm, even if you have an E3/5 (or similar) licence that allows for 1000 participants in MS Teams Webinar, you can not have breakout rooms for more than 300?
Also, could you elaborate as to what "H1CY22" means in literal terms, please?
Best Wishes
Kieran
