LeeJinWoo - What API did you use to get the attendee report after removing participant?

I also used the PATCH /users/{userId}/onlineMeetings/{meetingId} api for participant updates. However, it was only used in tests.
The current problem is that the host "removed" a participant from a Teams chat room, rather than using the API, but when meeting information is retrieved through the API, the removed user is still included in the participant information.

    LeeJinWoo - We tried below steps of adding and removing participants using PATCH api and we are getting correct participants list as follows:
    1.Creating an online meeting with participants A & B.

    POST https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/users/cxxdef33-d7xx-444c-xx28-be1f95e6b6f2/onlineMeetings

    {
        "startDateTime": "2023-12-29T14:30:34.2444915-07:00",
        "endDateTime": "2023-12-29T15:00:34.2464912-07:00",
        "subject": "User count Meeting",
        "participants": {
            "attendees": [
                {
                    "upn": "admin@M365x17798679.onmicrosoft.com",
                    "identity": {
                        "user": {
                            "id": "ce9def33-d7fc-444c-8728-be1f95e6b6f2"
                        }
                    }
                },
                {
                    "upn": "adelev@M365x17798679.onmicrosoft.com",
                    "identity": {
                        "user": {
                            "id": "75f9fd6b-bebd-4039-b576-2c7c87b1f5b1"
                        }
                    }
                }
            ]
        }
    }

     

    In result we have 2 participants

     

    2. Then added another participant C to the existing meeting using PATCH function.

    PATCH https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/users/cxxdef33-d7xx-444c-xx28-be1f95e6b6f2/onlineMeetings/{meeting-id)

    {
        "startDateTime": "2023-12-29T14:30:34.2444915-07:00",
        "endDateTime": "2023-12-29T15:00:34.2464912-07:00",
        "subject": "User count Meeting",
        "participants": {
            "attendees": [
                {
                    "upn": "admin@M365x17798679.onmicrosoft.com",
                    "identity": {
                        "user": {
                            "id": "ce9def33-d7fc-444c-8728-be1f95e6b6f2"
                        }
                    }
                },
                {
                    "upn": "adelev@M365x17798679.onmicrosoft.com",
                    "identity": {
                        "user": {
                            "id": "75f9fd6b-bebd-4039-b576-2c7c87b1f5b1"
                        }
                    }
                },
                {
                    "upn": "alexw@M365x17798679.onmicrosoft.com",
                    "identity": {
                        "user": {
                            "id": "1dd50ba7-e5bd-46ea-b34e-80a415148de7"
                        }
                    }
                }
            ]
        }
    }

     

    In result we have 3 participants

     

    3. Then removed added participant C using PATCH function.

    PATCH https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/users/cxxdef33-d7xx-444c-xx28-be1f95e6b6f2/onlineMeetings/{meeting-id}

    {
        "startDateTime": "2023-12-29T14:30:34.2444915-07:00",
        "endDateTime": "2023-12-29T15:00:34.2464912-07:00",
        "subject": "User count Meeting",
        "participants": {
            "attendees": [
                {
                    "upn": "admin@M365x17798679.onmicrosoft.com",
                    "identity": {
                        "user": {
                            "id": "ce9def33-d7fc-444c-8728-be1f95e6b6f2"
                        }
                    }
                },
                {
                    "upn": "adelev@M365x17798679.onmicrosoft.com",
                    "identity": {
                        "user": {
                            "id": "75f9fd6b-bebd-4039-b576-2c7c87b1f5b1"
                        }
                    }
                }
            ]
        }
    }
     
    In result we have 2 participants as expected.

      Hi, Happy New Year.
      In your third step guide, remove the last C user from the chat window of the meeting, not the API, and then GET the meeting information through the API.
      In this case, user C still exists in the participant list.

        LeeJinWoo - We tried removing the participant manually and again ran the GET query using the meeting Id and can observe that its returning 3 participants.
        This seems to be by design because the removed participant was part of the meeting and using that meeting id only, we are getting meeting details. So, its showing 3 participants.
