Meeting created via Graph API is not applying global policy properly

Hi All,

We needed to make sure that all external users when joining a meeting via meeting URL should be given the role of an attendee. I have run the following PowerShell command to set the policy

Set-CsTeamsMeetingPolicy -DesignatedPresenterRoleMode EveryoneInCompanyUserOverride -Identity Global

As a result at present if we are creating an MS Teams meeting via UI all external users are getting added as an "attendee", which is the expected behavior.

But if we are creating the meeting via Graph API using a code similar to -

POST https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/me/onlineMeetings
Content-Type: application/json

{
  "startDateTime":"2019-07-12T14:30:34.2444915-07:00",
  "endDateTime":"2019-07-12T15:00:34.2464912-07:00",
  "subject":"User Token Meeting"
}

And then when the external user is joining in via the meeting URL generated via the Graph API call he is by default given the "presenter" role and not the "attendee role as expected. Can you please help.

Thanks

Hi All,

We were able to solve this by passing the id of the organizer like the one sample given below

{
  "startDateTime":"2019-09-09T14:33:30.8546353-07:00",
  "endDateTime":"2019-09-09T15:03:30.8566356-07:00",
  "subject":"Application Token Meeting",
  "participants": {
    "organizer": {
      "identity": {
        "user": {
          "id": "550fae72-d251-43ec-868c-373732c2704f"
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

to get the id of the user you would need to query "/users" endpoint

Thanks

tiklu ganguly, Usually policies takes 24 hours to reflect. can you try it once after 24 hours from you actually set up policies. Let me know weather it worked for you.

Hi All,

Just to elaborate further. If we are creating the meeting via UI, all external users are getting added as an attendee. But if we are creating the meeting via Graph API the users are getting added as a normal "presenter" and not as an attendee. We have also tried using the Microsoft graph event API. And in that case, also the behavior is the same.

Thanks
