How does the Surface hub know what to dial in an Invite? It doesent seem to understand the standard
- Jul 20, 2017
The first attempt is by looking for TNEF metadata in the email. But Exchange strips this by default when leaving your domain/when the destination is a different domain.
The next is parsing the message body for a Join Skype Meeting link of the regular format. But if the meeting room account has DeleteComments set to false, message body will not be present in the meeting on the Hub, and so there would be nothing to parse. Please see for full list of recommended Exchange properties: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/surface-hub/exchange-properties-for-surface-hub-device-accounts
Thanks looking into this. But sounds like you really cant do one button to press across domains??
The second method I described, of the Hub parsing the invite message body, is a one button join to the meeting. Like I said, the room account just needs to have DeleteComments set to $false, and the meeting itself needs to have a valid "Join Skype Meeting" link.
