- This answer appears to be AI generated and should be removed. Neither the AllowCalendarInviteForwarding nor the AllowExternalMeetingParticipants parameters exist on the Set-CalendarProcessing cmdlet. And the Set-CsTeamsRoom cmdlet doesn't exist at all.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/exchange/set-calendarprocessingmike_powellis correct - and because these false commands are here - Copilot draws from them and continues to generate false answers.
It would appear that ProcessExternalMeetingMessages $true is the command that allows you to forward a Teams Invite to a Teams Room so that you hold the meeting in the room rather than at your desk. When you do so - the originator of the meeting will get the room acceptance message - not you. So - it's best if you can open up the calendar of the room involved to verify that it was accepted.
