Persistent or auto-start teams meeting for unattended monitor

I was wondering the same myself. This might be helpful: https://www.macrorecorder.com/

I guess there would be different ways of achieving your goal, but I did a quick test to start/auto-join a meeting when the meeting starts.

1. Created a shortcut to the meeting URL and saved to the Desktop.
2. Recorded mouse actions with the following:
   
   1. Show desktop (Click on that thing in the taskbar by the clock/system tray. It may not even be necessary to show Desktop, but it's a fast way of using the GUI.)
   2. Mouse left Double-click on the shortcut on the Desktop
   3. Wait 3300 ms for Teams to open (but you may need a longer wait time assuming you're running it at login/boot because Teams and web browser may need to start up too. You can also insert a wait time before 'showing desktop' to allow for login processes to finish up)
   4. Mouse left click on the Join button when the dialogue box for the meeting shows.

You could have the Marco Recorder run at login.

As for re-joining if it drops, I'm not really sure about that. There might be a way to do that with Marco Recorder's image detection, but I don't have experience with it.

The version of Macro Recorder I tested this on is "Standard 2.079s"

There are probably slicker, geekier ways since the Teams desktop app is based on Chromium, but that's beyond my understanding.
