how to automatic send meeting link to guest?
Hello! Looks like on scheduled meeting creation, teams does not send a link to guest attendee email. Is it normal behavior, or a bug? I oftenly create a meetings with people, hwo doesn't belong to ou...
- It shouldn't even be an issue. As confirmed it's for one time meeting and includes people outside the org. Channel Meeting in itself is wrong for it: should be a scheduled private meeting. Removing the channel will be the resolution 😄
Hi Alex_str
Did you set this up as an actual channel meeting? Where you set a channel in the Teams Meeting? Or was it a regular private meeting where you didn't add a channel? And you are doing this through the calendar app in Teams? If you could confirm that would be great
Best, Chris

1). I've try to create few new meetings through the web or native app both in calendar and "teams" sections. Yes, we have only one channel (called OrgName > General, created by default, I guess). And it's filled in the meeting creation form (see attached screenshot). It's not a repeating meeting, but every time created from scratch.
- That's the reason it's happening. Schedule a meeting without a channel (as shown in your picture by the purple/pink square) and it should resolve. Email invites with channel meetings is a bit of a blurry subject and it's still after all these years not completely clear, but this article helps a lot to clarify that

So the recommendation is next time you schedule a meeting - since they are one time meetings, do so without the channel and everything ought to work as normal with emails going out 😄
Best, ChrisChrisHoardMVP Thanks for your suggestions but I do not see the purple/pink button or anywhere else to change/set the 'channel'. Perhaps it is not possible in the free version of Teams. So back to sending a separate email to the meeting attendees with the copied meeting link.
