Logging into a Surface Hub to hold a class using MS Teams remotely from another location.
jemurphy This isn't possible in the manner you're describing, but can be achieved with near zero-touch.
Simply set up a Teams meeting, inviting both the teacher and the Surface Hub. Then, ask one of the students on arrival to tap the meeting on the Welcome screen to start the meeting off. The Surface Hub should automatically join the Teams meeting with the remote teacher.
Daniel Hudson Thank you. We did do something similar. We actually called into the room and had someone in the room pick up the call for the meeting and that worked well. The only issue we encountered is that for some reason one of the hubs we have kept saying it was busy, and promoted me to leave a VM, however it was not. Have you ever experienced that?

I've only had it go to VM when not in a call if someone has turned on Do Not Disturb on the Surface Hub during that session. As Cezar has said, might want to sign into the account on Teams on desktop and just check that it all works as expected.

Hello jemurphy,
That might be related to Teams rather than Surface Hub. You might want to check that Teams is signed in and if the account works as expected, maybe try it on your PC.
Thanks,
Cezar
