LinusCansby I want to share audio link to my students so they can listen my file, but i cant file icon " include audio on my computer :(" Could you show me, plz
Hi,
Then you have to download the desktop client and install it on your computer. You are using Teams web app and that version can't share system audio.
- This exact issue came up today, the instructor couldn't share audio from a PowerPoint app on Teams on a web browser (Chrome). Thanks for the heads up but will that change anytime soon Linus Canby?
GbengaKoleoso Share system audio using Teams in a web browser (Chrome or Edge) is coming very soon, see

The interface to share is a little different, generated by the browser, but when this arrives the Share System Audio option is at the bottom left of the share screen.
Others have said this so it might not be very helpful: the functionality is back and working in the desktop client and has been for some time. Sharing a PowerPoint might be somewhat different, but for "regular" meetings the toggle is at the top of the "share" screen where it says Share Content. There's a toggle that says "share computer sound."
LinusCansby My colleague and I have noticed that there is a difference in the desktop app for Windows and the desktop app for MacOS Mojave. My screenshot has failed, but he (windows) has the icon in the tool bar and I don't (macOS).
- I am seeing the same thing on the macOS Mojave client. This is the app, not the browser (which never allowed sharing of system audio in any case).
Paul_McG In our Team where everyone works on a Mac we've got the same problem: there's no button to include system audio. What could be the problem?
I've looked into system settings (privacy and sharing) but I think that's all configured ok.The button should be between "Beheer geven" and "Presenteren stoppen", right?
