Hello
I sent a joining code to a meeting at Teams via WhatsApp to a guest outside my organization and he is unable to log in with this link from his mobile phone . The guest does not have the Teams app installed but does not get the option to open the Teams web. Do you have any idea what the problem might be?
Thanks

Hi @rona_rona ,
When you say Joining code, could you describe a bit more as to how you came about getting this code. I just want to be sure we are not talking about the joining code for a Team itself.
Also what is the type of meeting. Is it a scheduled meeting, facilitated by way of Teams or a Scheduled or Meet Now meeting bound to a channel of a Team. If the latter the user is going to need to be a member of the Team as a guest to be able to access Teams via say Teams.Microsoft.com if they do not have the app.
Another way depending on how your Teams environment is setup in the background would be to get this person to dial into the meeting but they would have audio only in that instance but no need for a Teams client.
Thanks

Thank you Henry for your answer.
My question is about a scheduled meeting from the calendar and not from a Team or channel. The link to the meeting is copied from the meeting.
Our goal as IT is to define the organizational teams blocking the possibility of add guests to a team os channel without our approving , but to allow guests to be added freely to meetings.
Do you know what the problem might be?
Thanks

Thank you @adam deltinger I do not always have the external people's email address I want to invite to the call , sometimes I have only a mobile phone number.
What problems can there be when copying the meeting link to the WhatsApp web ?
