enable Accessibility Tree on macOS in the new Teams (work or school)
This is exactly what I was looking for! Thanks for posting this. I came across this GitHub repo, it’s old(er) but maybe helpful?

Haven’t tried it myself, but it would be very nice to join forces in this quest ☺️. Please feel free to contact me also: Timonvanhasselt at Visio.org.
BTW:
Would the Teams website version maybe work? Don’t know if they support Safari already or only Chrome etc.

this was a more complicated case: 1) the new Teams' app AX Tree was broken, so you couldn't get from parents down to children. you had to get back to parents FROM children. like A had B has children, but then when you ask for B's parent you get C rather than A. total shatshow. 2) the AX Tree had to be enable not from the main Teams app but for another subprocess. but they keep changing the stuff, so depending on the version you're trying, it may just work with the links above (the AXManual stuff). latest versions are more "standard" slash less broken. good luck.
