Setting Up a Conference Room Account in Microsoft Teams
I am seeking guidance regarding a setup issue I encountered while configuring a conference room account for Microsoft Teams. I currently have a Microsoft 365 Business Premium account and recently created a new user for our conference room. To enable Teams functionality, I assigned the following licenses to the account:
- Microsoft Teams Rooms Basic
- Microsoft Teams Rooms Basic without Audio Conferencing
- Microsoft Teams Premium
I granted 3 of them as I just started to try whatever I could find :)
However, when I logged into the Teams (using this new account) via the browser (https://www.microsoft.com/pl-pl/microsoft-teams/log-in), I received a message stating that I do not have an active Teams license (!) and was prompted to start a trial for Microsoft Teams Exploratory (is this yet another kind of license?). This has left me confused about the appropriate license configuration.
My goals are as follows:
- Conference Room Account Requirements:
I need an account within the Microsoft 365 admin center that can be used for our conference room, which includes:- A functional calendar.
- The ability to manage meetings (e.g., mute and unmute attendees).
Could you please advise on:
- Which license or combination of licenses is required for a conference room account with these capabilities?
- How to properly configure the calendar within this account in Microsoft Teams?
Thank you
Cheers
Wojtek
