webinars plus new meeting registration options
- Apr 29, 2021No need to create a security group, you simply need to assign the corresponding policy to the users who you want to be able to create meetings with external attendee registration. To do so, you can use the Grant-CsTeamsMeetingPolicy cmdlet. You can also do it via the TAC, but "registration" related settings are not yet exposed there, at least not in my tenant, so best to confirm the values via PowerShell first. Only the default "Global" policy allows Externals, so you might as well create a custom policy if needed.
I created a new policy and set the value WhoCanRegister value is "Everyone".
Added myself to the policy in Teams Admin
To see the member policyGet-CsOnlineUser -Identity name | Format-Table UserPrincipalName, TeamsMeetingPolicy
It took a couple days for Webinar to appear in new meeting. When I click require registration, I now have For everyone and For people in your org and guest.
For everyone will be grayed out for the Tenant global policy
Though the WhoCanRegister value for my custom policy is already "Everyone" and I have verified that my account has the right policy applied, when I create a new Webinar from the Team UI the "Everyone" value is still greyed-out for the "Require registration" option.
The tenant option is nowhere to be found in the Teams Admin Center, I guess the rollup is still ongoing.
- virtual-techMay 21, 2021Brass ContributorYup the roll-out is until end of the month. The policies are listed on the tenant but not the who can register - i think. That can be found in powershell....
- BBLDCMMay 22, 2021Copper ContributorI have exactly the same problem. Have you found the solution to allow selected users the ability to create a registration page that supports external attendees? Please advise.

I have some findings to share:
1. If I assign the Global policy (WhoCanRegister = Everyone) to a user the "Everyone" option is correctly available
2. If I create a new policy (WhoCanRegister = Everyone) and assign it to to a user the "Everyone" option is correctly available
3. If I assign to a user an exiting policy (WhoCanRegister = Everyone) created some months ago the "Everyone" option is greyed-out !!??
I compared all the policy parameters and even if they are exactly the same, the outcome is different (Everyone greyed-out for the old policy, Everyone available for the new policy).
Is it a bug?
Am I supposed to recreate all my policies from scratch?
