How to disable Teams audio and video call per user?

thanks

Hi Marvin,

You need to create Teams Meeting policy and apply to your users.

Logon to  O365 admin center >then  go to Teams & Skype admin center, >Meetings  > Meeting polices >  General > Allow Scheduling private meeting  set to off 

Then edit the Audio & Video section 

Then assign that policy to your use individually . 

Hope this helps

how long will policy take effect after enforcing to users?

Will call button be disabled after applying policies?

is this for meetings only or also applies to peer to peer calls?

how long will policy take effect after enforcing to users? - Its will be immediate

Will call button be disabled after applying policies? - Yes

is this for meetings only or also applies to peer to peer calls? for both if you disable everything

Hope this helps!

Hi, I have this same issue with all expected settings disabled. Were you able to reproduce this?

Created a new Meeting Policy and disabled everything.  Then applied it to 1 user to test.  He can still use the "Meet Now" button.  How is this possible?

Hi Thuyavan,
I also unchecked "Allow scheduling private meetings" and then applied the policy to a user, but the user was still able to video/audio call out.

Is this the correct setting to block video/audio outbound calling for a teams user? That is what I am searching for., thanks!

I can't find 356 admin center

Hi HeinMyoAung, the 365 admin center (now renamed to Microsoft Teams Admin Center) is found at admin.teams.microsoft.com and that is where you can find meeting policies. Hope this helps!
