How to Assign the Co-Organizer Role to Microsoft Teams Meetings
Rae_Jay Hello, these are the details of the co-org role.
Co-organizers can do the following:
- Access and change meeting options
- Bypass the lobby
- Admit people from the lobby during a meeting
- Lock the meeting
- Present content
- Change another participant’s meeting role
- End the meeting for all
- Create & manage breakout rooms
To make co-organizers breakout room managers, you must first assign them the breakout room manager role.
Co-organizers cannot do the following:
Create & manage breakout rooms(updated, see above)- View & download attendance reports
- Manage the meeting recording
- Edit the meeting invitation
- Remove or change the Organizer role
Hello, I was investigating a co-organizer role option for MS Teams meetings and came across this article.
However, it's disappointing that co-organizers don't have the ability to change the calendar date/time. Is this a feature that could be implemented in the future?
Thanks,
Laura
We've been able to have people other than the organizer edit the meeting itself (canceling, changing dates/times, etc.) by accessing the GROUP calendar via Outlook and editing the meeting from the GROUP that is linked to the TEAM. You have to be an owner in the Team to do this but it's a great way to cover people who are sick or change job roles. it's not a perfect solution but the workaround has helped us quite a bit.
