Teams guest access

Brass Contributor

Hi Everyone,

 

We have created a Microsoft Team and invited external guest users, is there a way to give these users permission to add new tabs and setup meetings in Teams as a guest user? I presume probably not as I cant find any functions that allow this?

 

Thanks

Hi @richard1991 ,

 

Here is a list of what Guest users can do :- 

 

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/MicrosoftTeams/manage-external-access 

 

They can use the Meet now functionality but cannot schedule meetings. They cannot add tabs, that is a member or owner permission only. 

 

Hope that helps

Since guests dont have a Exchange license they won’t be able to use any calendar features like scheduling meetings except “meet now”

Thanks guys, Appreciate the quick response.

@richard1991 Hey Richard (and anyone following) - I've been following the guest user scenarios for years now and have occasionally contributed with answers and blog posts.

 

I think you answered your own question as I cannot find a way to give permission either.
