Notification when memeber joins Teams conference
Hi!
Is there an option or setting to turn on an audio notification in a meeting room when another colleague is joining the teams meeting? I mean as it is the case with skype conferences.
Thanks!
You can get it when someone dials in via a conference bridge.
- Open Teams Admin Center
- Select Meetings > Conference Bridges
- Select Bridge Settings
- Make sure that Meeting entry and exit notifications are On
If someone signs in using web client or Teams client you will be able to see who it is signing in and if you want more control who is joining make sure that the Lobby function is activated for your meeting.

- I set this to "on" but it still doesn't do any sound... This is a miss really, always get a shock by having the window on the background waiting for someone 🙂
- Same here, every time. It's basic functionality for every other conference call app. I can't tell you how many times I'm the organizer and don't realize I suddenly have a room full of people waiting on me to say something. Yet, it doesn't appear they plan on adding this feature. This thread is getting some age on it and no fix in sight.

- That is useless.
LinusCansby I've checked with our IT Services team and they say we 'do not have conference bridge'.
Has the system changed since your original post?
Is there a way to get audio notifications for members entering/leaving a meeting?
rmistrytmc You can't get a notification when Teams users joins the meeting, only when someone calls in. If you need some notification either check the list of users joined in the meeting or activate Lobby for everyone, then you will get some kind of notification when someone wants to join the meeting.
Hi Max1011 - check out this page https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/turn-on-or-off-entry-and-exit-announcements-for-meetings-in-teams. Unfortunately, it has to be done in the Teams admin center rather than controlled on a meeting-by-meeting basis by the meeting owner.
