Chat button missing in a Teams Meeting?
Annoying for you! 4BobRandall A couple of things i'd suggest...
1) Get them to download the Teams desktop app if they are using the web app. There should be a download button bottom left of the app.
2) Upgrade to the new Teams meeting features - select profile pic and choose settings and tick the box for 'turn on new meeting experience' it requires restarting Teams so right click the teams icon and 'quit' then reopen Teams.
Lucia_DowntonNope. Today we had a different issue where I saw the button but it was grayed out and told me I wasn't a part of the team or something like that. Had to go out and back in and then it started working again.
Kelemvor333 Were you originally invited to the meeting that this occurred in? (grayed out chat button) or did you get the link copied and sent to you. I've noticed this consistently happening when I am not invited to a meeting but rather sent a link to join instead. Unsure if bug or feature.
HannahH2020 That kind of stinks. I feel that if full functionality is only available to the first 100 people, then Teams meetings should be advertised to support 100 people, not 250 (currently). Seems a little misleading if that is the case. Hopefully this will be resolved with the upcoming attendance increase.
