Teams room with External invitation
I have the project to set up a "Teams" meeting room with a Polycom room equipment that will be certified Teams soon: poly studio X50. I'm wondering how "Click to join" works when a person receives a...
- Can you explain more "to send the invitation back to a device."
When you forward the external invitation to your room account mailbox (that your MTR device uses) it will reply if it did accept the meeting invite or not to the person that scheduled the meeting (the external person in this case).
pdnielsen What they have to do is to turn on "ProcessExternalMeetingMessages" for that room mailbox, that is done with Set-CalendarProcessing.
Set-CalendarProcessing (ExchangePowerShell) | Microsoft Docs
Using Polycom Studio X50 + TC8, I can confirm that the following PS command works :
Set-CalendarProcessing -Identity "MTR_name" -ProcessExternalMeetingMessages $true -DeleteComments $false -DeleteSubject $false
You can then verify the modification of the mailbox properties :
Get-CalendarProcessing -Identity "MTR_name" | Select Identity,ProcessExternalMeetingMessages,DeleteSubject,DeleteComments
And the Join button appears on the TC8.
I would suggest securising the mailbox : https://www.graham-walsh.com/securing-external-meeting-requests-for-microsoft-teams-rooms/
