Teams Version history
"The MSI download doesn't tell you the version number"
Your post is old but I responded (to myself) to the same question today. So I'm just sharing.
Here what I did (in Powershell) then I put it in my monitoring to get alerts by mail :
(Invoke-WebRequest "https://teams.microsoft.com/downloads/desktopurl?env=production&plat=windows&arch=x64&managedInstaller=true&download=true" -UseDefaultCredentials -MaximumRedirection 0 -EA SilentlyContinue).Headers.Location.Split('/')[4]
Regards
Kevin_Pomerleau you can get the version from the download source
IF you copy and paste the link from the webpage it shows as https://teams.microsoft.com/downloads/desktopurl?env=production&plat=windows&arch=x64&managedInstaller=true&download=true
but if you look at the actual download location its https://statics.teams.cdn.office.net/production-windows-x64/1.4.00.35564/Teams_windows_x64.msi or whatever the latest link is
so I assume I have just downloaded version 1.4.00.35564
To confirm the download page you can use the following in the edge browser you have downloaded from.
edge://downloads/all
Once installed the executable teams.exe has the version number. I don't see what good the version number is if the associated changes do not flow with the version numbers eg.. Release notes for Microsoft Teams - Office release notes | Microsoft Docs the link has release notes for dates but not for version numbers so we have no way of tallying up version numbers with associated fixes.
