New Teams Meeting in Outlook with multiple accounts
- Mar 20, 2020
Okay, I see. Then maybe using the Teams calendar is the best option for you. You will not be able to see both calendars at the same time but you will be able to schedule Teams meetings in the correct tenant.

You can use the Teams Web Application for one of the accounts and the desktop client for the other Teams account. https://teams.microsoft.com
Hi tmabaker ,
Thank you for your suggestion but it seems that it does not apply to me, either because of "Outlook for Windows", either I'm just a "lucky" guy.
I have already added all of my accounts to Outlook and the messaging part is working without any problem - replying to a message into one account will automatically complete the email address of that account.
But my Office 365/Teams tenants are personalized so even the meeting will go to proper calendar when using the "New Teams Meeting" button, the part below the "Join Microsoft Teams Meeting" will be personalized from a single tenant - the one I'm logged on Teams Desktop App.
Maybe for the Mac, they did a better integration, and with all the updates that came to Teams in the last period, maybe they'll work better with Outlook integration.
Kind Regards,
Lucian
I have this exact problem also. Multiple tenants with Teams. All accounts added within Outlook, but when I try to create a Teams mtg from an email that wasn't the first email associated in Outlook, it appears on that email account calendar, but the meeting looks like it is actually hosted on the first account's Teams tenant. I get "someone will invite you in" when I am the organizer.

Symnoian I have the exaxt same problem and would really like a drop-down on the create Teams meeting in outlook, where I could select the account to use.

jlk100 same problem, multiple accounts in Outlook (windows, o365 E3) simply does not work. It gives a permission error: "Looks like you don't have permissions to schedule meetings for this account. Talk to the owner to get permission and try again."

Hi, I too have the same issue that only the 1 Teams login is used for which ever account is logged into Outlook when booking calendar appoitments.
As indicated above and I have confirmed with colleagues, it seems that this does work for Mac Outlook, it is just Windows Outlook that does not work.
The joys of Microsoft managing different having different (but the same) applications across different OS!
Would love this to be fixed - maybe when I retire Microsoft will get setup for supplier for work for many companies!
