Hiding Meeting Attendees
When sending the invite, yes, if you do it via Outlook and use the BCC field. If you mean inside the actual meeting, no. Live events can do it though I'm not sure if it's a good fit for your scenario(s).
Hi VasilMichev , yes it would be in the meeting itself that I want to hide participants. This will be for customer research or customer-facing webinars where we don't want all the participants to see everyone else in the session. Is Live Events something I should have access to? I'm wondering if that would work for our situation.
adam deltinger .. I tried creating a new meeting through Teams directly but don't get an option for "Live Event". Any help on this one pls?
Regards.. Tuhin
Not sure of your specific issue... but you need a specific type of license to have access to Live Events. The Standard Business Essentials or Business Premium licenses don't include the capability to host Live Events.
