Meetings Rooms in Teams User Activity Data (Meetings Organised vs Meetings Participated)
I tried searching for this questions on the forum but haven't been able to find anything related to Meeting Rooms (MMRS). We got few Meeting Rooms (MMRS) setup in business which helps us to collaborate with clients and attend meetings and I wanted to check if we are getting enough usage out of them for the investment we made. I see there are 2 data points in Teams User Activity export which gives information on Meetings Organised vs Meeting Participated. Usually, when you want to attend a meeting from these rooms I need to book, and they get recorded in Meetings Organised but what about Meeting Participated? Usually, you can go in and plug the cable and start the meeting from the room and I think they will show up in Meetings Participated. We have 2-3 boardrooms where you can't go just to attend the meeting, but it is still showing Meetings Participated > Meeting Organised. Can someone tell me on what basis the Meeting Participated is calculated on or what does that actually mean in this scenario?Changed the Names and Emails of our Meeting Rooms - Now We Have Issues
A couple of weeks ago, the boss wanted the names of our meeting rooms to change in order to match a new naming convention. Our helpdesk team changed the names of the rooms and also changed each room's email address to match the new name. Since then, user's outlook clients are showing multiple rooms with the same name (only rooms we changed). When booking a meeting in Outlook for one of these rooms, one version will work correctly (room will appear in the location field of the meeting invite). The other duplicate version when selected, will not populate in the location field, but rather, will populate the previous name of the room in the location field. Any advice on how to get these duplicate rooms removed? There are no duplicates listed in Exchange Online under Resources. Duplicates only showing up in Outlook for users.Reporting Meeting Room Statistics with PowerShell and the Microsoft Graph
This article explains how to use the Microsoft Graph API and PowerShell to extract meeting data from the calendars of room mailboxes to generate statistics. The idea is that you can use the data to figure out how busy meeting rooms are in a world when hybrid working might make the idea of a conference room less attractive. https://practical365.com/report-room-mailbox-statistics/
Exchange Online Meeting Room showing as Unavailable
Hi All, I've come across a strange issue, the short history I was given is that 3 Meeting Rooms in an Organization were restricted for bookings for a period, however now they want those meeting rooms available to all users. I cannot find any documentation around what the Admin (who has now left) did at the time to restrict this. There are no policies in place to restrict users, the only anomaly I can fine is that the Address lists appear to be incorrect. I have not been able to find out how this happened or a way to resolve this: I've been through many MS Documents and forums to try and find an answer but have had no insights yet, so figured I would try here. Meeting Room with no issues: PS C:\scripts\meetingrooms> Get-Mailbox -Identity "mailto:email address removed for privacy reasons" | Format-List AddressListMembership AddressListMembership : {\Offline Global Address List, \All Rooms, \All Users, \Default Global Address List...} Meeting room with issues: PS C:\scripts\meetingrooms> Get-Mailbox -Identity "mailto:email address removed for privacy reasons" | Format-List AddressListMembership AddressListMembership : {\All Recipients(VLV), \All Mailboxes(VLV), \Mailboxes(VLV), \Offline Global Address List...} Any idea on how I can make sure meeting room7 is in the 'All Rooms' list? Cheers B
