How to invite additional attendees to a meeting without sending an update to all
Hello, I have a Macbook. I host a big meeting on teams twice a month and there is always at least 1 person who has left the company or another 1 joined. How do I update the meeting invite without...

Outlook should be able to do this, if you open up the meeting in Outlook (Desktop) calendar and remove or add attendees then click send update it should give you an option to send update to all, or send the update only to added/deleted attendees. You would pick the latter option.
I would be shocked if Outlook for Mac didn't have this functionality!
Hope that answers your question
Best, Chris

JennyHoA20181 It seems this issue has been resolved. I just added one attendant in the outlook calendar web version (Google Chrome) and pressed "Send". When I checked the outbox of Outlook the calendar invite was only sent to the newly added attendant.

Not yet solved for Teams! I schedule meetings directly from the Teams app. I is quick and easy to check everyone's availability and then to add/delete participants.
I just don't want everyone to be re-invited every time I add/delete another participant. If it now works in Outlook, why cannot it work in Teams?!
Does anyone from Microsoft actually monitor these chats? They would learn a lot and it might help them improve the software!

I have same issue, when I edit the meeting to add a user (that is the only way I can add a person to a meeting) it does not prompt me to send the update to only the person added, it only gives me the option to "Send" or "Save as a Draft".
The only way around this on Mac is to forward the meeting invite to the person I want to add to the meeting. I have Outlook
