Cancel an occurrence of channel meeting
Hi All,
We started using/encouraging users to use Teams meetings instead of Skype and recently we came across an interesting behavior. If you set up a recurring Teams Channel Meeting and would like to cancel just 1 occurrence, it is not possible(at least I could find that option). I tested with some old teams and I could go to the group calendar in OWA and it shows me an option to cancel meetings, but in all the newly created teams, I do not have any option to cancel the meeting.
Hmm just tested this. Should work by
1.) Going to the calendar
2.) Selecting the meeting and edit
3.) Edit this instance
4.) Cancel meeting
I did this in a recurring meeting specifically in a channel (general channel in the Team).
Best, Chris
- Open the group calendar in Outlook and remove the single meeting from there! I agree this should be simpler though
adam deltinger From outlook, it only allowed me to decline or delete the occurrence.
- Alright, just saw the update!! Movin out!

Best, ChrisA workaround I use is to just update the start date of the occurrence to the next occurring meeting. This however doesn't help when you want to cancel a single event in the future and still have your regular meetings in the meantime.
But, for the record, ChrisHoardMVP it doesn't make sense that the same meeting series behaves differently between the channel and the calendar 😉
- Sure. I would open this on Uservoice or search to see if there is something open and add your voice to it. Consistency is absolutely key for a good UX

- Haaa it works from Teams Meeting tab! Thanks
- Fantastic! Glad we got you an answer!
Best, Chris
