Scheduled meetings on Surface Hub (1703 Creators Update)
I am having the same issue on Hub 2 with Exchange On-prem accounts and it is nearly 2 years later.
Is this still an known issue? Is there a fix or is Microsoft forcing to Exchange Online?
MicrosoftHello Chris_Gates,
This will not be fixed as it's not broken.
The option to see your scheduled meetings relies on Graph Explorer which pulls the calendar information from Office 365. This, as you can imagine, will not work with Exchange on-premises and currently there is no plan to implement it.
Thank you,

cezarcretu That's absolutely worthless, so I'm forced to migrate my users to the cloud to be able to actually retrieve my meetings on the Surface Hub so I can join the meeting as the person who's logged in.
Because that's the only way to join a meeting using the Surface Hub if the meeting has been created by a 3rd party company
Because the join meeting button by using a room device is not available on their phones or any device when the invite is from outside the company. There's no use "Room Device" button available, the interface is different.
The only option I have right now is always ensuring that our users create the meeting on our side and invite the Surface Hub.
Or the 3rd party invites the room in their invitation(Which is really not professional)
It's absolutely ridiculous that I'm actually forced to migrate to the cloud while currently having a perfectly working Full Hybrid situation, but this feature is essential to actually properly use the Surface Hub.

Hello rohgin,
Retrieving your meetings and files only works with Office 365 for the reason I mentioned, you're trying to connect to a service which doesn't support this feature.
However, this doesn't limit you from joining Teams/Skype meetings organized by users outside of your domain. You can set the device to accept external meetings using the ProcessExternalMeetingMessages parameter in the Set-CalendarProcessing cmdlet. You can also forward the meeting invite to the Surface Hub if this was not done by your partner.
Would that work for you? If not, please open a support case and we can explore all the possibilities to configure the device to work as it best makes sense for your business.
Thank you,
Cezar
Yeah well, we tried the invite by external party once.
They could hear us, but they couldn't see us, while the camera was definitely working. As we could see ourselves.
Restarting the Hub didn't work. They just saw the image with the 2 letters of our hub name.
So currently we are creating the meetings to be sure everything works.
I tried forwarding, but it seems the original meeting created by the other party doesn't get the update that an user/device has been added, so there's no join button available on the Surface Hub.
