Teams guest access
Hi Everyone,
We have created a Microsoft Team and invited external guest users, is there a way to give these users permission to add new tabs and setup meetings in Teams as a guest user? I presume probably not as I cant find any functions that allow this?
Thanks
Hi richard1991 ,
Here is a list of what Guest users can do :-

They can use the Meet now functionality but cannot schedule meetings. They cannot add tabs, that is a member or owner permission only.
Hope that helps
Andy

richard1991 Hey Richard (and anyone following) - I've been following the guest user scenarios for years now and have occasionally contributed with answers and blog posts.
I think you answered your own question as I cannot find a way to give permission either.
Today, I published a blog post rounding up the most frequent questions I get asked and the most Googled queries. You can find it https://dispatch.m.io/microsoft-teams-external-users/

- Since guests dont have a Exchange license they won’t be able to use any calendar features like scheduling meetings except “meet now”
Thanks guys, Appreciate the quick response.
