Copying Teams Link Creates Multiple Separate Meetings
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.
- Oh 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
- Interesting to see this issue pop up again. I have changed jobs again and am now using Teams intensively. I have had this problem occur once. Glad to see there is a workaround. We have a consultant from Microsoft that works with us. I may pose the question to him.
Hi AmandaNZ
No we didn't. We realised that the person who sets the meeting has to be the person who sends the link and starts the meeting. It was very annoying and is one of a number of ways in which Teams is much clunkier and less user-friendly than Zoom (don't get me started) but unfortunately, our key clients are only able to access Teams through their work-provided devices.
