Removing a Meeting in a Teams Channel when the organizer is gone
4BobRandall I came across this question when I was also trying to solve the problem. None of the existing answers were very useful, but I worked out a good solution that worked for me. When you view the Calendar in the Teams application, or via your normal Outlook application, you are usually viewing your own Calendar, via the "My Calendar" view. If you are an Owner of the Teams Channel, you can access the Group Calendar via Outlook...
1. Open Outlook
2. Switch to the Calendar in the Navigation Pane (bottom left for me)
3. In the left-hand navigation, underneath the monthly view, you can select different Calendars. For me, there are top-level options of My Calendar, Team, Other Calendars, Shared Calendars, and last there is All Group Calendars. In this last item (All Group Calendars), I found the Teams Channel name, and clicking on it showed a new calendar representing the Group view.
I found the appointment in this view, where I was not the Organiser, but I was allowed to Edit/Cancel the appointment because I was a Group Owner.
I hope this helps somebody in the future...
4BobRandall Hi, there are several UV requests for an enhanced end-user experience when it comes to meetings in Teams. You can go and have a look and vote for the ones you like or create your own. I believe this is the one with most votes when it comes to multiple organizers https://microsoftteams.uservoice.com/forums/555103-public/suggestions/40694212-assign-multiple-organizers-on-a-teams-meeting which would prevent your scenario.
As for the channel meetings they are created in the calendar in the underlying group mailbox (no separate mailboxes for the channels). In other words, add permission to yourself or contact your admin to assist with that so you can enter the calendar and remove it.
Hi, ChristianBergstrom , any word on if https://microsoftteams.uservoice.com/forums/555103-public/suggestions/40694212-assign-multiple-organizers-on-a-teams-meeting is active yet?
The link no longer works, but the functionality described is something I'm seeking for my MS Teams channels meetings --- I want to allow a set of delegates to edit the meeting as needed. Is that possible yet?
Thank you!
