Hi glindauer checking you are still using this method?
I can get the URL no problem however how do you exit the meeting without losing the ability to rejoin? Do you have some basic steps you follow that you could share pls?
I have a client who is using AcuityScheduling and we need a fixed URL to add to the meeting reminders for her coaching clients.

- glindauerNov 17, 2021Copper ContributorI actually never ended up using that method, our group ended up using a competitors product for most meetings.
However, if you bookmark the URL in your browser, you should be able to click on that bookmark at any time and rejoin the meeting (or, if everyone else is gone, you'd start a new meeting in that same "room"). The browser should either automatically open the Teams desktop application, or prompt you to do so, or allow you to connect just using the browser. Hope that helps!- bevrobertsmentorNov 17, 2021Copper ContributorThanks for letting me know glindauer.
It closes the meeting when you hang up although I didn’t try going back to the URL.
My workaround is from Outlook online creating a recurring all day meeting for Mon - Fri with the Teams switch on and no reminders or end date. I had to hide the chat as it shows the guest name but it’s ok for 1:1 meetings with different clients- glindauerNov 17, 2021Copper ContributorYes, if you are the last person in the meeting it will close. However, if other people are in the meeting, it should stay open until the last person leaves. So if others are in the meeting and you leave, and they stay in the meeting, and you go back to that same URL, you should be back with them.
Is it not working that way? Again, haven't tested this since July 2020.
