Nick Elniff thanks a lot for your quick reply. I have used the following powershell script to set the global policy to by default set the external users as attendees
# setting up the session
Import-Module SkypeOnlineConnector
$userCredential = Get-Credential
$sfbSession = New-CsOnlineSession -Credential $userCredential
Import-PSSession $sfbSession# global vars
$policyName='Global'$policy = Get-CsTeamsMeetingPolicy -Identity $policyName
Write-Host "current policy"
$policy.DesignatedPresenterRoleMode
Set-CsTeamsMeetingPolicy -DesignatedPresenterRoleMode EveryoneInCompanyUserOverride -Identity $policyName
$policy = Get-CsTeamsMeetingPolicy -Identity $policyName
Write-Host "Updated policy"
$policy.DesignatedPresenterRoleMode
Write-Host "policy update completed"Thanks
Tiklu
