Meeting notes tab missing?
- Jul 21, 2020
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

Go to the channel where the meeting occurred (or the meeting chat if the meeting wasn't in a channel) and find the meeting. Beneath it, select Show notes in fullscreen.
Selecting Show notes in Fullscreen may create the meeting notes Tab
Let me know how you get on
Best, Chris

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.

ChrisHoardMVP We have the Meeting Notes tab in some channels but not others, and I can't figure out how to add it. We don't have a "meeting notes" button in the meeting or calendar like some have mentioned in other reply's in this thread, seems strange why it is in some channels but not others??

ChrisHoardMVP Likewise - none of the options referenced exist.
