New Teams Toggle

I am an independent consultant, and actually have AD accounts with 3 or 4 different customers using Teams.   So I am using the 'work' version, but have self installed (I use my own computer so I can admin multiple VPN's, various apps, etc).

 

Since I am using teams with multiple accounts, but installing myself, I don't see the 'toggle'.  For me handling multiple accounts is critical and a long awaited feature.   Is there a way I can enable this?

 

I've tried checking the config settings, and following various other suggestions.  I do have WIN 11 and a a current version of both Windows and Teams.

    Hey, JohnPopowski - the new Teams toggle is an admin setting.

     

    There are a couple of options for you:

    • Set up your own Teams environment (you’ll need a subscription or look at the Developer Program if you’re testing the functionality)
    • Ask one of your clients to turn it on and use their tenant as a “main” one

    That said, I wouldn’t recommend using the current preview version of the new Teams for regular work if you need anything other than. Chat and basic Team/Channel functionality. 

    It’s nice to have the multi-tenant function but it lacks a lot of others in its current state: https://adoption.microsoft.com/en-us/new-microsoft-teams/
