Hi m8ttysmith

AFAIK you can't automate messaging policies based on specific SKU's at this time. There is, however, a uservoice open for something similar

https://microsoftteams.uservoice.com/forums/555103-public/suggestions/36752605-assign-messaging-policy-to-groups

So I would recommend voting on it to push it up the agenda. However, Policy packages may work for you in this situation

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/MicrosoftTeams/manage-policy-packages

Hope that answers your question!

Best, Chris

    OK thanks, how do I assign those policy packages on mass ? As in to 6000 students

     

    Thanks

        thanks for this, am I going mad here but cant you actually assign and create policy packages yourself or do you have to use the built in ones...

         

        For example, I can see there are separate Messaging / video / screen sharing etc polices but ideally I want to create separate custom polices that I can roll up into one Custom Policy Package to which I then assign.
