Can't Edit OneNote notebook in Teams

We have a PLC Team that had a pre-existing OneNote added to it. This was not a Class Notebook, just a standard one.  At one time I was able to edit the notebook right inside the Teams interface. I no longer can and have to open it in OneNote. The message across the top says: "To ensure the best possible experience for our users, OneNote will be read-only be default." See attached please.

 

What can I do to restore the ability to work in the OneNote inside Teams?

 

Thank you!

  • jaredhawk During these unprecedented times (with the extensive increase using cloud services) they're just making minor temporary adjustments to some services and apps within Microsoft 365. 

  • alexmbraden Hello, this is a change in behavior and has been published as "Awareness of Microsoft 365 temporary feature adjustments" in the Message center (MC207439).

     

    OneNote:

    • OneNote in Teams will be read-only for commercial and education tenants. To edit, please use OneNote for the web or the OneNote desktop app.
    • Download size and sync frequency of file attachments has been changed.

        jaredhawk I agree, this has reduced some of our Teams' efficiencies and productivity. Looking forward to a resolution that sees better interoperability.
