Booking not available for everyone
Dear Community, We are currently experiencing an issue within our tenant related to the Microsoft Bookings App. While the app is enabled and accessible via browser for users in a specific group, some users are unable to add the app directly to their Teams interface without submitting a request. At this point, we have not been able to identify the root cause of the issue. I might be a policy issues that only we can solve. Has anyone encountered a similar problem or could suggest possible solution? Thank you :)
Where does Teams get its user list from? I can't make sense of which accounts I see vs which I can't
OK, so I have a currently rather unusual situation. I am looking at a 365 Tenant. A number of users have four accounts on the same tenant (let's not even get into why, cleaning things up is part of the reason I got called in). When you start typing their name into teams it comes up with three of them as a suggestion (I only want one) Account 1: has just been used for ActiveDirectory for permissions to the company's Distributed File System (stored in on on premises servers in various locations). This account has to the best of my knowledge never had a license or mailbox associated with it, and so has never been on the global address list, it's also never had the teams app enabled for it. I don't want this one to show, but it does Account 2: A now defunct account which used to have a Business Standard license assigned to it, but has now had the licensed removed. Before the license was removed this account was hidden from the GAL and its teams app disabled. I don't want this one to show, but it does Account 3: An now defunct account which still has a Business Standard license, but with Teams deselected in the Apps. I don't want this one to show... and it doesn't Account 4: An account shared via a multi tenant organization (the users in question have been migrated to a new tenant). So these are members (not guests) but external ones. I want this to show, and it does. Now, accounts 2 and 3 will be deleted soon, whether we can get rid of account 1 depends on whether the necessary access to the DFS can be done using account 4 (which I need to look into next). However for the time being they are all there so I was trying to hide accounts I don't want users trying to message on teams from teams, and I cannot make any sense of which I see which I don't. To sum up. Account that has never been on the Global Address List and never been activated for Teams - Shows Account that used to have a license and was on the GAL, and used in teams - Shows Account that still has a license, but has been removed from GAL and had teams app disabled - Doesn't show Account that has no license and is not on the GAL, but has teams on it's host tenant - Shows After a previous inquiry I set "Scope directory search using an Exchange address book policy" in the teams setup, but I have not set up any specific address book policy as yet. I have tried showing and hiding people from the global address list, and also the "ShowInAddressList" setting in Entra (which seems to only be available through graph?). Nothing seems to make a difference (it doesn't help that Teams takes forever to update its local cache for this stuff, so maybe a change DID make a difference at some point and I missed it). I cannot find any logic as to which of these accounts is showing in the auto suggests and which not, most notably that account 1 shows but account 3 doesn't. So, where is Teams getting its list of contacts from?
Where's my display name?!
Hey everyone, I just set up my entire team with an Outlook account. Each person has their own display name (First, Last) and other personal information attached via the 'Identity' tab in the admin center. My issue is that when a team member sends an email it arrives the in the recipients inbox as 'email address removed for privacy reasons' instead of the display name of 'Joe Montana.' How and what do I change to ensure the recipient of the email sees the name of the sender rather than their whole email address. It's affecting our deliverability because it looks spammy. Any help would be appreciated!
Guidance Needed on Microsoft 365 Subscription for Teams App Development
I am currently developing an app for Teams and have set up accounts in the Azure portal, joined the developer program, and accessed the Teams developer portal. However, when attempting to log in to the Teams admin center, an error occurs: Internal calls to PLS Service have failed. We can't find the tenant region for tenantId. Please try again later to join the developer program, the message indicated: `Thank you for joining. You don't currently qualify for a Microsoft 365 Developer Program sandbox subscription.`. Research revealed that Microsoft discontinued the free subscription. A subscription is needed to access the Microsoft Teams admin center and for Teams app development. I can see various Microsoft 365 plans for businesses like Basic and Standard, as well as licenses available in the Microsoft 365 admin center. I am considering the Microsoft Teams Essentials license. However, there is confusion regarding whether to buy a subscription or a specific license, especially since active users in the 365 admin center are showing as unlicensed. Could anyone advise on which plan or license is necessary for Teams app development?New Teams Crash After Sharing Screen
Only 1 user on a Surface Pro that recently has a Teams crash after sharing the screen. It shuts down the application and boots them from the meeting. Teams version 24193.1805.3040.8975. The laptop was imaged and it is still occurring. Working with Microsoft Support and they haven't been able to help. Device crashes with no other equipment plugged in. Any help is appreciated.
Identifying Inactive Teams
Hello, I am trying to identify inactive Teams, I work for a reasonably sized company so we have hundreds of Teams setup. I have tried running a Usage Report but that only shows Teams that have had activity within the last 7, 28 or 90 days, if a Team has had no activity for over 90 days it does not seem to appear within the report. So far the only way in which I have come up with identifying these inactive Teams is to compare the Usage report with the list of Teams manually which is less than ideal. Are there any alternatives that I am missing? I have read about running some kind of Powershell script but I am not that familiar with using Powershell. Thanks for any suggestions.How to Modify Phone Number More Information Field
Hello, From the Microsoft Teams Admin Center > Voice > Phone Numbers > Numbers page you're able to have it a field named Additional Information as one of the optionally displayed fields, but I can't figure out how to enter text into this field. When I select a number, then select the Edit button it doesn't display a control to edit that field. I've looked through powershell phone number commands, and I didn't see anything in there that would modify this field. Any advice is appreciated!
Admin Teams Attendance Reporting
A manager contacted IT and needs a Teams' attendance report for those that report to her. Basically needs to know if scheduled meetings are happening on time and if those who are invited are showing up. If I go to Manage User and find the users, I see "Past Meetings" which lists the meetings and participants. If I click the meeting ID, the data the manager asked for is there. Unfortunately, there is no way to properly export this to provide the data the manager requested as the individual meetings only show that particular meeting. For "Past Meetings", there is no way to export. Is there a way to export this data?
