Email notification to Team members when meeting is scheduled

hi,

When I schedule a meeting in Teams only Team owners receive an email notification.

Is there a way for all Team members to receive an email notification?

  • Hi FrankGriffin 

     

    This is the expected behavior for Microsoft Teams Channel Meeting. Members would not receive the Email Notification but they should get a Feed that there is a Meeting Schedule in the Teams Channel.

  • I have the exact opposite behavior, despite the O365 group setting for notifications to all members being OFF.  The channel calendar meetings are emailing the entire team (edit/update to my comment- it's emailing the GUESTS) when we've only invited two members to the meeting, and we don't want others to be notified for this.

        bert The only "solution" I found, which isn't an acceptable solution, is to tell the guests to go into outlook.com and unsubscribe from the team's outlook group notifications. We have hundreds of project teams, thousands of guests... we're not going to engage in a campaign to tell/educate guests on how to do that.

      Hi, thanks. What do you mean by 'get a feed' is this a message to their email? Or is it a notification in teams?

        When a channel meeting is scheduled, only the members you put on the to line will get an invitation on their calendar.  Other members of the team who want to join the meeting but aren't on the 'to' line will need to add it to their calendar manually.  Members of the team will see when a meeting has started if they are in the channel - and they can join at any time.  There is no specific notification in their Activity feed about the meeting.
