Teams Premium + Bookings : Automatic recording and transcription for Bookings meetings ?
Hello, I have a Teams Premium license, recording and transcription policies are enabled on the admin side, and Video Recap works correctly when both are active simultaneously in the same meeting. My use case : my clients book time slots via Microsoft Bookings. Teams meetings are therefore created automatically by Bookings and I have no control over their scheduling. According to Microsoft Learn documentation (https://learn.microsoft.com/microsoftteams/virtual-appointment-meeting-template and https://learn.microsoft.com/microsoft-365/bookings/bookings-overview), there is no documented mechanism to automatically apply a Teams meeting template, and therefore automatic recording and transcription, to meetings generated by Bookings. My question: has anyone found a workaround for this limitation (Power Automate, Graph API, or anything else)? And does Microsoft have a documented roadmap on this topic? This gap directly prevents Teams Premium users from accessing Video Recap on their client meetings, which is one of the core use cases Teams Premium is designed for. Thank you for your help

Hi all, I have a user that wants to integrate StarLeaf into one of his Microsoft Teams group. He is not the owner of the group. The issue he reported: "Currently, Starleaf for Teams is installed, but when there is any attempt to setup using the integration token generated from our systems admin in Starleaf, an error occurs." The link for instructions he used: https://support.starleaf.com/integrating/starleaf-for-microsoft-teams/#3-Install+StarLeaf+for One of the errors he gets: "Something went wrong. Reinstall StarLeaf for Teams." Any idea of what to do? Kind regards, Dino
Create event sometimes returns 201 but no Teams meeting link
Hello, I am creating calendar events through Microsoft Graph and setting them as Teams online meetings. Most of the time it works correctly, but very rarely the API returns 201 Created and the event is created without the Teams join link in the response. I have already checked the following: isOnlineMeeting is always set to true. The correct online meeting provider is being used. The issue is intermittent, not consistent. The same integration normally creates Teams meetings successfully. What I need to understand is: Why can Graph return 201 Created but still omit the Teams meeting link? Is this a known intermittent issue with event creation or Teams meeting provisioning? Is there anything I should check in the response, headers, permissions, or follow-up GET call to verify the meeting link was actually createdHow to Schedule Teams Meetings from Shared Mailboxes
It is possible to schedule Teams meetings from shared mailboxes without incurring the need to license the shared mailboxes. However, Microsoft’s recent clampdown on unlicensed OneDrive for Business accounts creates a problem because Teams meeting recordings are stored in the OneDrive account for the organizer (shared mailbox). And if that account remains unlicensed for 365 days, it will be removed along with all the recordings. https://office365itpros.com/2026/07/16/schedule-teams-meeting-shared-mbx/
Migrating Teams Calling Bot (EchoBot) from VMSS to Windows Containers / ACI?
Hi everyone, I have built a Microsoft Teams Calling Bot using Application-Hosted Media based on the official C# EchoBot sample: https://github.com/microsoftgraph/microsoft-graph-comms-samples/tree/master/Samples/PublicSamples/EchoBot Currently, our signaling logic is fully serverless and runs efficiently on Azure Functions. However, the actual media processing (using the C# Calling SDK which relies on native Windows media binaries) is deployed on VMSS with Windows Server, just like the repository's default deployment guide suggests. Running these Windows VMs continuously is becoming extremely expensive, and we are looking for a cheaper, modern, or "on-demand" alternative to handle the media pipeline. Since raw audio processing strictly requires these native Windows-based Media binaries, I would like to ask the community: 1. Windows Containers (ACI / AKS): Has anyone successfully run this C# EchoBot/Media SDK inside Windows Containers (such as Azure Container Instances or AKS)? If so, how do you handle the public IP and port-binding requirements for the media sockets (since the platform needs direct public connectivity for UDP/TCP traffic)? 2. On-Demand Provisioning: Are there any known architectures or best practices for spinning up the media processor only when a call starts (e.g., triggering an ACI instance via the Azure Function signaling bot) and tearing it down afterwards to keep costs near zero when idle? 3. Alternative Approaches: If you have solved this high-infrastructure cost problem for a real-time raw audio bot in production, what architecture did you end up using? Any documentation, GitHub references, or architectural advice would be highly appreciated! Thanks!
Allow muting a person only for me
Sometimes I am in a meeting where one of the persons in the meeting is actually near me in the world outside the screen. In this case the sound is a bit maddening since there is a small delay between the sound from the person and the sound through the teams interface. In these cases, I would like to mute the person only for me since I am sitting near and can hear the person fine without headphones. Right now I need to takeoff headphones when the person is talking and putting it back as the person finishes talking.Automatic initials are taking my business
Hello everyone, I'm a software developer, mostly based in Germany. I have a M365 Business Account and am using Teams as part of it. Since automatic initials, instead of generic profile pictures, became a thing, I'm constantly in a hurry to change my profile picture as soon as possible. This is because my initials are SS, which in the German culture is the abbreviation of the company responsible for the death camps during Nazi Germany. People are so upset about it that I even had customers not do business with me. They saw the SS initials in calls and thought I was using this on purpose to make a political stand, i.e. being in favour of the industrial scale mass murder of several million people. I'm not. So here is where my frustration is with Teams, which I'm paying for, and which is taking my business away with its stupid initials: I cant change the initials without changing my name I cant populate my picture to outside orgs preventing the initials from being shown This leads me to the incredibly uncomfortable situation that every time I connect to a new client, I need to discuss my distancing of the genocide 80 years ago before actually being able to commence a meeting. Not a very happy topic and as mentioned before I have lost business because of it. Is there please, any solution to this, that doesn't involve having to change my name? Kind Regards SebastianUpdate: You can now control Teams Meeting Recording expiration notification emails
Hey Teams community, We've heard the feedback. For admins and users managing a high volume of meetings, TMR expiration emails can pile up fast. We've been working on giving you control, and that control is now here. What's new Tenant admins can now use a PowerShell cmdlet to suppress Teams Meeting Recording expiration and deletion notification emails across their organization. Notifications stay on by default (no change if you do nothing), but if you'd like to turn them off, here's how. Prerequisites Latest version of SharePoint Online Management Shell (download here). Note, it's Windows-only, so you'll need a Windows machine or Azure Virtual Desktop SharePoint Admin or Global Admin permissions Steps 1. Connect to your tenant powershell Connect-SPOService -Url https://<your-tenant>-admin.sharepoint.com 2. Check the current value powershell Get-SPOTenant | Format-List *Recording* False = notifications currently on (default). True = notifications suppressed. 3. Suppress notifications powershell Set-SPOTenant -DisableTeamsMeetingRecordingDeletedNotification $true You'll see a confirmation prompt — enter Y to proceed. 4. Verify powershell (Get-SPOTenant).DisableTeamsMeetingRecordingDeletedNotification True means you're all set. No more expiration emails for your tenant. Want to turn them back on later? Just run the same command with $false. What doesn't change Recordings still expire and delete on the same schedule No per-user settings, no UI changes. This is purely a tenant-level admin toggle We'll keep monitoring feedback, and as always, drop your questions below.
