Teams v2 - Meet Now says 'Meeting Ended' in channel
Our org fully switched to Teams v2 last week - IT had been using it for the most part for ~2 months with no issues. Yesterday we started getting tickets from users that use the Meet Now functionality in their Team's General channel to have impromptu meetings throughout the day.
On Teams v1 someone would start the meeting, and everyone else in the channel would get a toast notification that a meeting had started. If they missed the toast they could go to the channel and click 'Join'.
In Teams v2 people are starting Meet Now meetings in the same channel, but no one is getting a toast notification, and when they asked people to join via chat, people would go to the channel and the meeting says 'Meeting ended'. Except, when they close and relaunch Teams v2, they can suddenly join the meeting. The bug is not apparent in either of the web versions of Teams either.

I've opened a ticket with Microsoft (2311280010000070) and I'll keep everyone posted on that, just wanted to see if anyone else was affected. A lot of our users are saying closing and relaunching Teams v2 breaks their workflow and want to switch back to Teams v1.

I and other members of my organization are also experiencing this issue. We have a lot of rooms that are reserved for ongoing meetings (much like conference rooms) that are designed for people to jump into and out of.
Since switching to the new teams, I am often unable to join these calls, as the meeting with show as having 'ended' even though I know people are still in there. If I restart teams, it often shows the meeting again and then I can join. This is very annoying having to restart Teams all day just to join meetings and chat with people to do my job.- sebbkraemerCopper ContributorI'm still seeing this in version 24060.2809.2788.1256 (24060.2809.2788.1256), "new teams". What's the best place to report the issue officially? (I'll do it.)

sebbkraemer Microsoft Support ticket - feel free to drop a link to here in the ticket too.
- TWong540Copper ContributorI've had this problem ever since I switched to new teams
- BradyDavisCopper ContributorThis is still an issue. Incredibly frustrating that Microsoft still hasn't fixed this. Microsoft Teams is a truly dismal experience and each update seems to make the overall application worse and nothing ever gets fixed.
- Paul_1980Copper ContributorSame here, and I hear a lot of complaints from my coworkers about this as well. We've got a two-pronged approach to work around it: quite a few coworkers have started to pre-emptively log off and on again a few minutes before our daily standup (using Meet Now), and some others have started to invite others that are showing online but not in the meeting.
It's a pretty annoying bug that a lot of people are hitting, and it's a shame it's still present after 6 months.- Linda_NessCopper Contributor
Paul_1980 We are experiencing the same issue. The workaround we have found is to start a new meeting, enter the meeting room and end it. That seems to refresh the page and you can then enter the meeting which is running. It would be great if this could be fixed, it's a pain.
paulyoungberg are they also invited as in personally invited to the meeting?
- paulyoungbergBrass ContributorThey are not, this is a Meet Now meeting started within the channel. The Teams v1 behavior did not require people to be invited once the meeting was started, instead, it toasted everyone that was a member of the channel.
