Meetings - participants that declined are still being notified of meeting chat messages
We're facing a quite annoying problem with Teams meetings that causes all participants that were invited - irrespective of their response (unknown, decline, tentative) - to be brought into the meetin...
ChrisWebbTech-- Thank you for this information. It is very useful. Unfortunately I don't see the issue in the backlog.
Problem:
Users that declined a Teams meeting, still are asked to Join and still receive notices from the chat.
Why is this a problem?
I work with a number of group worldwide, many 6-12 hours separate from me. I decline many of the meetings because they occur at 2 or 3am in my local time zone. Unfortunately, we also use Teams for our on-call operational support. I cannot turn off Teams Notifications. 😞
SOoo… Where can I find the address to send suggestions for the backlog? 🙂
You’ll need to contact support but a few things to note. If these meetings are scheduled to a channel in your team and you are set for notifications on that channel you are going to get notifications for the meeting regardless since it’s chat takes place on a channel thread.
I don’t know if this is the case here but a hunch because the meeting chats should not notify you unless you join and or participate in the chat first. But the exception to this would be a channel meeting with channel notifications turned on.

This issue is still occurring and it's not a Teams channel meeting.

Still happening. I work for a globally distributed team, and I get alerts in the middle of the night. I’m often wearing my Apple Watch, and I get buzzed for every post in a meeting I declined. Absolutely maddening.
- I still get the notifications and it is a general meeting invite sent through Outlook and it's not in a channel. Very annoying.
ChrisWebbTechChannel meetings! <D'uh!> Of course. Now that makes since. Thank you!
