Need to Close a Meeting in Teams
I am using the version that our school pays for. We have a subscription.
I did end the meeting like you showed in the video. And, I set the duration time for half hour. But, it's still open. Students can open this meeting many days later and talk without me knowing it. I see that I can cancel the meeting, which will stop it. However, cancelling a meeting and ending one is not the same. I am hoping that there is another tool that ends it that I am missing.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Sincerely,
Deb McCutcheon @Debra_McCutcheon
Debra_McCutcheon Hello Debra, the 'end meeting' feature was completed about a month ago but unfortunately they overlooked what end meetings should include. In other words I understand what you want to achieve and there's a couple of Teams UserVoice requests on the topic. Go there and vote to stay updated.

ChristianBergstrom Microsoft are working on a setting for Edu to require a teacher to admit students from the lobby, this will then mean student's can't
- join early
- rejoin later
- invite other people to the meeting
- get back in if they were forced out.
Looking forward to this added feature for teacher virtual classrooms.
Hope it's soon. 🙂
StevenC365 Thanks for the heads up! I was on "autopilot" here... I didn't even notice the student/education part.
I believe this is the correct UserVoice to vote on then Debra_McCutcheon
