External (guest) users can no longer be added to a Team and previous external users removed!
- Feb 14, 2020
Hi all,
Everyone in my team is completely stumped! We haven't changed any settings, nothing was turned off or on and all of a sudden on Tuesday everything started working again and existing teams where people were auto removed, were automatically re-added! It's a strange one!
I have a feeling it could be the PowerShell thing I did first and I was just impatient but I honestly couldn't tell you.
Thanks all.
Can you add users or is it just some of your users?
Same issue if you add the guests in the Teams Admin centre?
Hi Andrew Hodges, thanks for you quick response.
Any of our internal users can be added no problem. The only issue is with any external people.
I can't find any option to add users in the Teams Admin Centre but even if I could, we have over 500 employees and only 6 support staff so we don't want to have to add someone every time a user wants a person adding!

Have you started your Teams upgrade as that can have an affect on who you can add in?
That screen you pasted isn't as a Team owner - if you manage a any team as an Owner you are not able to invite Guest users?

What Teams upgrade? We haven't started any upgrade as far as I know.
Yes, whether you're an owner or not, it still doesn't let you add guests.

I know you said you had checked it but just checking this is on:-
Anyone made any changes in Azure AD to be able to invite guests (ignore the highlight):-
