Hello,
I have a Macbook. I host a big meeting on teams twice a month and there is always at least 1 person who has left the company or another 1 joined. How do I update the meeting invite without sending the update to ALL?
Seems like a simple thing, but cannot see how to do it. I also have Microsoft Outlook, but there is also no option to do it on there.
Thanks everyone!
Jenny

@Christopher Hoard No it doesn't give me that option - puzzling! I have outlook for Mac version 16.40.

@Christopher Hoard This was a feature prior one of my last OS updates. It not longer comes up.

Hello there is a solution to this:
1. Open the invite in MS Outlook
2. Click on "Scheduling Assistant"
3. Click on the "Add Attendees" button (you can also delete attendees at this step)
4. The Address Book will come up and you can remove names from here and add names including optional attendees
5. Click on the "Send" button
6. The choice will now come up to send to deleted/added attendees or to all attendees.
And that's it. Good Luck.

I have this exact issue as well. Being a MacBook user, I use Mail, Calendar, and Teams but not Outlook.
If I go to Outlook on the web, there is no option "Scheduling Assistant".
And if I try to forward the invitation, the page hangs.

I am also having this issue. I tried the steps outlined above, to use the Schedule Assist, but the update went to all the meeting attendees anyway. No screen ever popped up asking me if I wanted to send the update only to the new folks. The same thing happens when I forward the calendar event -- it shares it with all the attendees.
In my case, I am not the event organizer and I am using the Outlook desktop application.

@Vilnius_Nic UGGGHHHH I'm a MacBook user and I've tried everything. I've used Outlook online via Chrome, I've used MS Teams calendar, I've used apple Calendar, I've used Outlook desktop and anything I've scheduled from my MS email sends meeting updates to ALL - so unprofessional. There must be a workaround. This is so simple and works in my MAC OS environment as long as there is no tie to Microsoft. Come on guys!

@JennySommet It seems this issue has been resolved. I just added one attendant in the outlook calendar web version (Google Chrome) and pressed "Send". When I checked the outbox of Outlook the calendar invite was only sent to the newly added attendant.

I am having major issues with my outlook (which has recently updated its format as of this week) I can no longer send to added or deleted attendees only (I am on a windows laptop). This is causing major problems - please fix soon Microsoft!!

@ADPHAnnabelCulley I am having the same issue with the 'new version of outlook' on my PC. I have looked into many forums and they all say to go to the to: line and add an individual and then hit send and it will prompt only send to additional attendees. The prompt is no longer coming up. I'm about to use the 'old' outlook as this is unprofessional and frustrating.

I have a MAC using Outlook, and I just added a person to a group meeting and confirmed that the update was only sent to the new invitee and not the entire invitee list.
