Chat error in a company meeting
Is anyone of you sure that there is no channel added or O365 group involved this this anyhow. This looks very much a case when you have a meeting from channel and attendees are not members of channel.
Petri-X I think you're on to something with adding the Channel as at least part of the issue.
We just experienced this Chat Error issue for the first time on 6/18 in five meetings that we set up for training that day. Each of the meetings had 35 to 50 people in them. We set up the meetings using the Calendar in the Teams app to invite everyone. We added a channel to the meeting using the "Add Channel" field. The people in the meeting who were not added to the Team could not use the Chat in the meeting. We did not want to add everyone to the Team and the program does not let you add people only to a Channel within a Team.
We had previously had other training sessions like this two weeks ago, but they were set up through the Outlook Calendar and no Channel was added. Everyone in those meetings could use the Chat function just fine.
Next week we have a few more training Meetings that we are setting up. We were planning on setting them up through the Teams app using the Calendar and NOT add the Channel to see if that resolves the problem. Hopefully it does.
