How to change default meeting option for who can present org wide?
- Take a look at meeting policies: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/meeting-policies-in-teams This is something you can configure with PowerShell
I have the same issue. Did you ever find why the users are assigned the https://admin.teams.microsoft.com/policies/meetings/edit/UmVzdHJpY3RlZEFub255bW91c0FjY2Vzcw== policy instead of the Global policy? In my global policy the option for who can present is set to OrganizerOnlyUserOverride, but the assigned policy https://admin.teams.microsoft.com/policies/meetings/edit/UmVzdHJpY3RlZEFub255bW91c0FjY2Vzcw== policy, which everybody is assigned to, sets to everybody is presenter, and this policy is not editable.. My solution was to make a custom policy and assign this to the usersgroups as an alternative Global policy.. to override the https://admin.teams.microsoft.com/policies/meetings/edit/UmVzdHJpY3RlZEFub255bW91c0FjY2Vzcw== policy
Ad_de_Roo Hello, Teams includes a built-in policy named 'RestrictedAnonymousAccess' which contains pre-defined settings. The predefined settings in the meeting policy can't be edited or changed by admins. It's very common that users in organizations are assigned to this policy (causing issues).
The policy should not be used and this is an example of how you can remove it

Ad_de_Roo Hi! Was just about to reply when noticed you had updated your post. Well, that's great. My plan was to "walk you through" with the prerequisites (in other words what you just did) and then start with the first script. Thanks for the update and well done!
When I try to remove the RestrictedAnonymousUserAcces policy I use:
$restrictedAnonymousUsers = @(Get-CsOnlineUser |? TeamsMeetingPolicy -eq "RestrictedAnonymousAccess" | %{ $_.ObjectId })
New-CsBatchPolicyAssignmentOperation -PolicyType TeamsMeetingPolicy -PolicyName $null -Identity $restrictedAnonymousUsers -OperationName "Batch unassign meeting policy"
it returns a error:
New-CsBatchPolicyAssignmentOperation : Cannot bind argument to parameter 'PolicyName' because it is an empty string.
Empty string is used to indicate the default Global policy must be used. Also a "" returns the same error.
Any suggestion how to resolve this? f.e $null becomes $Global ?
Turned out to be that in order for the New-CsBatchPolicyAssignmentOperation command to work with a $null you need to have the latest version of the PowerShell Modules. After the command 'Update-Module' it all worked like a charme.
Thanks for your support.
