Meeting notes tab missing?
I created a channel, and posted a meeting to it. I expected a meeting notes tab to appear. I joined the meeting and created a conversation with participants, and still the tab has not appeared. HO...

I had exactly the same issue as described. When I go via Calender to a meeting where I am an organizer I have no option for the meeting notes. Since I was able to create meeting notes in some occasions I search using search bar and the I found a work around.
From left side bar with options like (Get Start, Activity, Chat, Teams, Calender, Calls ....)select "Chat" then
Search for the meeting in Chat Recent (it is order by time and has calender symbol)
Click on the meeting and I had success, now I was able to create the meeting notes since the tab for meeting notes is now available.
I was in the same organization as the organizer and or I was the organizer. The meeting had less than 20 participants.
I hope it works for you also.
After this works you can go Calender, Select the meeting, if meeting is open, select chat and then you will see the meeting notes

I read on the Microsoft page that TEAM's meetings created from a channel where a meeting has not yet occurred in the channel cannot have meeting notes until a meeting has occurred. I got around this by starting a meeting with myself within the Team channel, starting some meeting notes then leaving the meeting.

LPalmer Hi, I'm trying to find the source of this information (that meeting notes only appear after meeting is started). Do you have it by any chance?

BarbSitarzNo, I'm sorry I didn't bookmark the page I was just googling for info yesterday and stumbled across it.

LPalmer @BarbSitarz The information is mostly accurate. I'm the original thread starter and I've learned how meeting notes work since then.
SO - when meetings are started, you can take notes in the meeting. You can ALSO chat during the meeting. You should do so. The benefit of chatting is that it is also associated with the meeting. SO when the meeting is over, you can go over to "Chat" and find the meeting chat. The Meeting Notes are there. (You can probably also find the meeting notes in the calendar, but I don't typically do it that way.).The meeting notes functionality is available outside of meetings, as "Wiki" - and what Microsoft should do is just have the meeting notes show up there when looking for them outside of the meeting. But anyway, at the present moment - that's what I know!

Tamara_B-W I've been asked if it's possible to remove the Meeting notes tab from a meeting as they want to use OneNote instead. From your research on making it come back, is it also possible to remove it?
