Hi,

If you open your live event booking from the Teams calendar you should see "Get attendee link", that is the link you should send to attendees. It is only presenters and producers that you should invite to the meeting. You could create an Outlook meeting with the Attendee link and send that to attendees.

Do you all have the Business Essentials? As I understand it Live Events is not included in that license plan, only with: Office 365 Enterprise E1, E3, or E5 license or an Office 365 A3 or A5 license.

Hi Linus,

I understand now the concept of invites, but are you using the live event with public permissions or other permissions?

We all have business essential license, but i am the only user that has the option to create Live events within my organization. we don't have other types of licenses either than the ones Microsoft gives for free.

Those are the licences we have, and as you can see nothing special.

Additionally i have not set any special nor created special policies for myself, because we started to use teams very abruptly due to the pandemic. so all policies are still vanilla.
