Copying Teams Link Creates Multiple Separate Meetings
mgradie I have this problem for every meeting I create in teams and it is driving me nuts because I can't figure out the solution.
Our teams meetings involve people from outside our organization. I can't add them to the relevant team because their organizational settings don't allow that. So I schedule a meeting in teams and add the person in organization who is responsible for creating the meeting invites (in apple calendar) and she copies and adds the link. The link in teams for the meeting leads to a different meeting than if I click the copied and pasted link in the calendar invite. This has been happening since we moved from (our much preferred) Zoom to teams because our meeting participant's organizations don't allow access to zoom. Any solutions gratefully received

Menziemenzietta I am having the same issue. Have you found a solution?
I had been able to create a meeting in Teams (8:45 am-Noon) and then copy and paste the link into different meeting invites so the presenters can join the meeting at their specified time (ie., 9-10a, 10-11a, 11a-Noon).
I did this as recently as March. Now, when I copy the link for the meeting into the presenters invites, it creates a new, separate teams link for each invite.

skleevy Did you ever find a solution for this? We also are having the issue as we gradually move all our meetings from Zoom to Teams. This morning everyone joined from the join button within Teams and still ended up in three different meetings.
- MenziemenziettaApr 05, 2023Copper ContributorOh and I should add we tell people to use the link in the email we send not the link in their calendar invite. That seems to solve the problem

No. I pretty much stopped using Teams and then I changed jobs.
