Teams Calls using Transfer with consult
Hi all, I have a Yealink MP56E2 desk phone with the extension EXP50. When adding "Consult Transfer" to a line key on the extension then the text "Consult with" plus the contact name is added to display on the extension. Consult with is displayed on the first of two lines, taking away a lot of space. Even worth if you change the language to German. Then only 3-4 characters remain to display the contact name. See pictures below. Has anyone managed to change the leading text? In my opinion, no text is needed as the Icon already indicates the "Consult Transfer" function.Apps notification settings missing in Teams settings
Hello Teams Community, I'm facing a strange issue with App notifications in Microsoft Teams. I've already researched this and found nothing. I've opened a Microsoft case and I'm waiting for an answer but it's taking longer than expected. So, I'm turning to you for expedited help! Scenario: You're an administrator in Teams. You've applied a setup policy for a pinned app like Viva Engage. After the policy is applied and the tool is launched, users complain that notifications are either too frequent or not frequent enough. You direct them to the Teams Notification and activity settings to control app notifications. The users go to Teams notification settings but report back to you that the App section of Teams settings doesn't exist. Problem Statement: Microsoft explicitly states in their documentation that in order for the App notifications section to appear, you must first add an app yourself within Teams and get at least one notification. But relying on users to add an app, somehow create a notification, and then remove it, just to access App notifications is impractical and would never work. Desired Outcome: I'm looking for a way to bypass this prerequisite and force the Apps section to appear in the Notifications and activity section without any user action whenever an app is pinned in the Teams admin center with a setup policy. I'm hoping this can work with any app, not just Viva Engage. Any help is appreciated. Thanks, Teams experts! -Rob
Microsoft Teams PowerShell Module 7.6.0 is broken
Dear Community I have a few Script with Microsoft Teams PowerShell, witch authenticate via Access Token. Everything works fine until latest Microsoft Teams PowerShell Module Update 7.6.0. I got following Error with the Script. Connect-MicrosoftTeams : Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.IdentityModel.JsonWebTokens, Version=8.3.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified. If I downgrade my environment from Version 7.6.0 to Version 7.5.0 and rerun my script, the authentication is working as expected. What is wrong here with latest PowerShell Module 7.6.0 and how can I resolve the issue Many thanks for sharing any hint or tip ANDY
Teams admin centre - add the ability to setup a team completely (shared channels and/or groups)
I think the current teams setup workflow in admin centre is a bit flawed. We're trying out to create a team for every project that we do, but since these projects are done by many different departments it makes sense to use Shared Channels within each project and divide the data in such a way that it is stored in the site library of the channel that is the most fitting. For example creative documents in the channel for the creative department, and business documents in the business channel. To make things clearer to the end user we would like to structure each project the same. So it would be logical if an admin could create these shared channels while creating the project and not have to trust that a project manager is able to set things up correctly after they get assigned. (so being able to create a template would be nice...) So IMHO what is missing from admin centre: -ability to add shared channels. -ability to add teams (in this case department teams) to these shared channels. -ability to create a template with shared channels configured (is a little bit complex, because channel names need to be unique, so some sort of variables need to be taken into account... maybe these can be distilled from the main project team name...which is basically what we also intend) (maybe this could be done with Power automate if the ability to create shared channels is being added to an admin's abilities...) Another option, which would actually be much sweeter would be to skip Shared Channels altogether and add the ability to add Office 365 groups to the main Team, now we can only add members... I would like to work with Team groups, as it's much easier to manage and remove a user from a group than to have this user have to be removed from each project individually. But actually I think both options are a necessity...
Removing Teams from a Specific User Profile via Script in Intune
Hi, Working on a process with using PowerShell to remove Microsoft Teams from a specific user that is not the primary user of that computer on multiple Windows 11 devices using Microsoft Intune. However, I need a script to make this happen. Can I get some help from the community on this? Has anyone else seen this before? Thanks, ZC46Teams Admin Center Simplifies External Collaboration
Microsoft is rolling out a UX update for the Teams admin center to make it easier to manage external collaboration settings. The new UX doesn’t introduce any new features. Instead, its goal is to hide some of the policies and settings complexity that sometimes afflicts the Teams application. It’s a good change, even if it probably won’t make much difference. https://office365itpros.com/2026/01/02/external-collaboration-tac/
Teams email notifications of missed chats coming from wrong email address?
For the past several days, when some users have missed a chat message in teams and they are setup to receive an email notification, the sending email address of the notification is incorrect. It has always been that these notification emails appear to be sent from the person who sent the original chat message, but now, they are being sent from our global administrator account email. Obviously creating lots of confusion and has broken these users' ability to reply via email. Has something changed, or is this a bug?
