Why someone cannot see/chat after leaving the meeting?
Hi folks, My company has some vendors. I setup the Teams meetings with all of them. They all called in using their company domain emails. After the call ends, one of the vendor always got kicked ...
Credmontgo Hello again, finally I have access to all work related stuff and here's the official info about the roadmap id Microsoft 365 Roadmap | Microsoft 365
A participants access to meeting chat will be dependent on how they were invited to the meeting:
- Who can see the chat for a single meeting?
- People who are invited to the meeting or forwarded the meeting invitation after it is scheduled have access to the chat before, during, and after the meeting (up to the 1000-person limit).
- People who are added to a meeting after it starts using the Invite someone field on the Participants pane (or are provided the meeting join coordinates in another way) will have access to the chat from the time they join to the time the meeting ends. They will not be able to see chat that takes place after the meeting ends.
- Who can see the meeting chat for a recurring meeting series?
- People who are invited to the full series have access to the chat before, during, and after the meeting (up to the 1000-person limit).
- People who are forwarded the invite of a single occurrence of the series or added to a meeting after it starts using the Invite someone field on the Participants pane (or are provided the meeting coordinates in another way) have access to the chat from the time they join to the time that meeting instance ends. They will not be able to see chat that takes place after the meeting ends.
Note: These changes do not impact channel meetings.

So this does mean that link sharing for educators through Canvas and other methods won’t work for creating classes anymore. Hopefully Canvas can find a way to add students to the participants list when creating Teams meetings inside of Canvas, and/or Microsoft allows a toggle to change this behaviour.
- Hello Therese - can you share the link to the discussion on that site please? Tried searching and can't locate it. This is a huge issue - the comments here a just a tiny tip of a large iceberg. We have spent quite a lot of time trying to work out what the heck is going on with this issue.
Hello Credmontgo ChristianJBergstrom I'm going to move this conversation to the Microsoft Teams for Education discussion site for further comment or input from the EDU team.
- I will try to explain. The way I, and I think many educators were running their classes in Teams was by creating a link to a recurring Teams meeting either through the Outlook app (many education institutes still use Exchange and therefore don’t have access to the Teams calendar), or more likely through their Learning Management system integration, such as Canvas. They would then share this link on their internal course website and students would join. Since the link can be restricted to organizational participants, this effectively eliminates zoom bombing too. At least in my experience few professors are going through and adding every student to the original invite (not possible through an integration like Canvas), and students are constantly added to courses through the first few weeks as well. So this new policy presents some serious challenges.
Now of course, professors that are using the full Teams platform and creating an actual Team for their class would not have these problems, since the students would need to be either added, or join the Team directly. This would only be for instructors using the Teams meeting platform only. - I have no idea what you're talking about to be honest (no edu experience) but you should take note about the wording here, such "after it's scheduled" and "after it starts" as that is the big difference on how access will be decided.
