Microsoft Teams Takes Center Stage at the 2026 Microsoft 365 Community Conference
Microsoft Teams is where people, Microsoft 365 Copilot, and agents come together to collaborate, communicate, and get work done—before, during, and after every interaction.

Meeting Options are limited
Hello, I have run into a problem of not having a full access to meeting options. I would like to schedule meetings for other people in the office where I do not necessarily have to attend. I would also like to assign other people as co-hosts so that they are able to admit people and have more control of the meeting. There should be settings of being able to let people come in without waiting in the waiting room as well, but I cannot seem to find it anywhere. Here is the attached screenshot: These are the only two options I get when clicking "Meeting Options". Additionally, whenever I set up a meeting, some people are not able to respond to it because they get an error of undeliverable response: "delivery has failed to these recipients or groups". What is the issue here? Does it have to do with how Outlook is set up? How can I change these limitations and errors? Thank you so much!
Bot App Deployment to MS Teams by Admin
Hi, I have developed a bot application for Microsoft Teams and am looking for an enterprise-level solution to deploy it. The goal is to allow an admin to install the app across all chats and channels without requiring users or team owners to manually add the bot. Specifically, I want to know: Is there a way to achieve this deployment through the Teams Admin Center or another native Microsoft Teams feature? Can the app be added automatically to all chats (personal and group) and channels across the tenant? If not directly possible, what alternatives or automation solutions, such as Microsoft Graph API, can be used for this purpose? I am looking for the most efficient approach, suitable for large-scale enterprise environments, without requiring manual interaction from individual users or team owners. Any insights, examples, or guidance on best practices would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.How to Deploy a Bot Application to All Chats and Channels in Microsoft Teams for Enterprise?
Hi, I have developed a bot application for Microsoft Teams and am looking for an enterprise-level solution to deploy it.

Specifically, I want to know: Is there a way to achieve this deployment through the Teams Admin Center or another native Microsoft Teams feature? Can the app be added automatically to all chats (personal and group) and channels across the tenant? If not directly possible, what alternatives or automation solutions, such as Microsoft Graph API, can be used for this purpose? Is it possible to add my bot application to private, shared and standard channels? I am looking for the most efficient approach, suitable for large-scale enterprise environments, without requiring manual interaction from individual users or team owners. Does MS Teams provides such a way. Any insights, examples, or guidance on best practices would be greatly appreciated! Thanks

Bulk remove all RSS app posts ?
We've added the RSS app a few months ago to get news. But we don't use it and find it over (or under) whelming. Way too noisy, not configurable, etc. Please tell me there's a smarter/quicker way to get rid of all these countless posts in one shot (or some workaround). We haven't posted much yet and wouldn't mind re-starting from scratch.
