Share Teams Access without the need to approve them (internal)
Hi Community,
I want to do something that my support team is telling me its not feasible. But I did have this functionality in a previous organization so I am confused.
I want to share the link to access Teams space in my organization (not sharing it with people from outside my org), and I would like people to be able to join the Teams if they like to without me having to approve them.
I dont know if there is a specific setting that would allow our organization to create team spaces allowing anyone with the link and an @myOrg.com account to join without having to approach them one by one.
Thanks a lot for sharing your thoughts
Fernando

Hi fscheps - you can create the team as a public one (or change it after the fact) so that it shows up when users click the join or create a team in the lower left hand corner.
Alternatively, you can create an org-wide team that automatically adds everyone. If you don't see it, maybe your org is over 10k users. You can use the same link above to change a team to an org-wide team after the fact.
Hi Kelly_Edinger Thank you for your comments.
I understand that but I have some doubts about either suggestion.When creating a "Public Teams" I dont want to allow anyone outside my organization to request access to the Teams, is there any way to restrict for example anyone at @mydomain.com to be able to request access only?
If we choose to have an Org-Wide teams, this is not really relevant, as the Teams is useful for a large population but not for the whole company.

Fernando- From your team, you can click the 3 dots, then select 'Manage Team' > Settings > Team Code > Generate. This will give you a QR code that you can share. Anyone who scans it will automatically be added.
