Help to understand the access of chat history in MS Teams Meetings - recurring meetings
Yassin Koleilat Hi Yassin, I have a similar situation with a recurring meeting where we invite guests every other week. When you remove the guest (I remove them from the chat in Teams) they will no longer see the history. If you invite the same guest again once they join the meeting they will be granted access to the chat again but they will not see any chats that have occurred prior to them re-joining the recurring meeting. And the meeting chat will alert you that the person has joined again. I will upload a view for you so you can see what the guest will see versus what the rest of the team will see. Once you remove the person from the chat you can feel confident they will not receive any chats that they do not need to see. Check out the screenshots below and let me know if that helps š Thank you.

Thanks a lot Ethan Stern for shedding light on this matter. It has been a question that haven't been easy to understand. It feels confident they will not receive any updates in-between the time where the guest is not invited.

- No problem! Iām glad I could help. I did worry about the same thing but I liked being able to just directly remove the guest from the conversation myself. It made me feel better.
