Microsoft Teams Moderator for Q&A
Is there anyway you can add a 'moderator' in the Teams Q&A? With everything going on in the world right now, it would be great if we had more control on who sees what in the chat window. Particular sensitive subjects that we can hand off to HR and not discuss it in the Q&A Chat window.

If I understand your question correctly, then the answer is that there is no way to formally designate a "moderator" in regular Teams. It's a more interactive, casual environment, so imagine being in a conference room with your colleagues, except virtually - in that case you might just ask someone to answer any questions that arise.
You could note the moderator in the body of the invitation if you want everyone to know who will oversee the chat window. But basically, everyone in the meeting has equal access (not like in Live Event, where producers and presenters get different links and access to the back end). Does that answer the question for you? Adam, feel free to add your expertise if needed.

You can always add additional users as organizers/presenters for them to have access to QnA.

adam deltinger I know Microsoft Team Live Event has this option. My question was for Microsoft Teams (not live event). When I set up a meeting in Microsoft Teams. I do not see a place to add someone to moderator the QNA.
