I am getting a very strange error when trying to add a new user to an existing group chat using a GraphQL call. I have looked through the documentation, asked AI, and even contacted Microsoft support and no one can seem to explain why this API call is failing. Below is the API call that I am making. I can find no reason that I should be receiving the error message '#microsoft.graph.aadUserConversationMember' To get the basic questions out of the way.... Yes, the account making the API call DOES have permission to add users to the channel (and can do so using the frontend as normal.) Yes, the thread in question is a group chat, so adding members to that chat should be a valid command. Yes, ALL members in the group chat currently have the type '#microsoft.graph.aadUserConversationMember', so it is definitely a valid type for users in this channel. Yes, I have tried both the beta and stable channel; each gives the same error message. Yes, the invited user is internal to our organization, and is a valid target for the invite (invites work through frontend as well.) No, I cannot use the 'add member to channel' endpoint, because the chat is a group chat, not a channel. I can only assume, at this point, that the error message is a red herring and there's something else wrong with my API call?Why am I receiving this error message when trying to add a member to a pre-existing group chat? Thanks in advance for any assistance.

I have a client-side web application that we're trying to get to run as a Teams personal tab app. I have the app working as a teams app, as long as we "open in new window" so that the app doesn't get put to sleep as it needs a permanently up session with something else. Our app uses Web Notifications API (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Notification) to create desktop notificiations, but this does not seem to work when running as a Teams tab app popped out into a new window. No notifications are displayed. Permissions have been requested correctly and given and Windows is set to allow notifications, but these web notifications never make it out of teams to the desktop. There are no errors in the browser console to say the web notifications are not supported in Teams. Is this not supported as a teams app? The inbuilt activity feed is useless for our purpose (for a few reasons), so please don't suggest I use graph to make use of that instead.61Views0likes3CommentsWhats the best Practise for on-call duty via teams external calling?
Hey community, I'm a bit in a struggle when setting up our Teams Operator Connect Phone system. We have an Auto attendence which is offering different menus (Press 1..., etc) We're planning on setting up a twentyfour x seven on-call duty where customers can call and are getting redirected to the mobile phones of our technician. I saw the option to forward to one number, but there isn't an option to forward to multiple numbers. How do you guys solve such a scenario, where you have to wake up colleagues mid night? We are changing shifts weekly, always 2 guys, sometimes 3 ppl. on shift. Thank in advance, SchnittlauchSolved132Views0likes3CommentsFocus on the Teams Phone calls that matter most with Copilot call delegation

Hello, i have questions regarding transcription in Teams. Our org has Microsoft 365 Business Standard licenses, two users have icrosoft 365 Copilot Business on top of that. First question: is transcription possible for users without Copilot Business License? If the meeting policy is specified as something other than "off", some people can start the transcription, even if all participants of the meeting have no Copilot Business License. Is this on purpose or am i using a loophole and am i violating my license agreement in any way? Second question: some users can start the transcriptions, while others with the same teams version, license and meeting policy can not I read that having the personal setting disabled to identify yourself automatically in meetings will prevent you from starting the transcription, but that setting is enabled for every participant. On the teams app for android, one participant can enable the transcription, in the same meeting in the desktop app it is not available (disabled by Administrator per Policy) Teams version is 26072.519.4556.7438. Any pointers how i can locate the user specific difference, that is responsible for the transcription? I checked the assigned meeting policy and it is the same. Thanks for your time and help! Best regards, AndiY35Views0likes1CommentOption to change default recording & transcription settings?
I've been asked to look at changing the default settings for recordings & transcriptions, specifically the “Who has access to the recording or transcript.” setting, changing it from "Everyone" to "Specific people". I've looked through Meeting Policies in Teams Admin Center but can't see an option that governs this behaviour. Although we've advised users to change this setting if needed, we have had instances where the user has forgotten to change the default and has inadvertently allowed guest/temporary participants (who may have only been in attendance for a specific item) to see the whole meeting transcript. Many thanks, Olly388Views2likes2CommentsContinuous feedback in Teams without it getting lost in chat?
Our company is trying to move from annual reviews to continuous feedback. The idea is that managers and peers give quick feedback throughout the year and it all gets captured somewhere. Right now people just send feedback in Teams chat or email and it vanishes. By the time reviews come around nobody remembers what was said 6 months ago. Is there a structured way to give and receive feedback inside Teams that actually saves it and makes it retrievable later?19Views0likes0CommentsStruggling to keep 1:1 meeting notes organized across weeks in Teams
I have 8 direct reports and we do weekly 1:1s. Right now I'm keeping notes in OneNote but theres no easy way to carry over action items from last week or see what we talked about 3 months ago without scrolling forever. Teams meeting notes are even worse because each meeting creates a separate note. Someone in my company suggested using a Loop page but that still doesnt solve the continuity problem. How are other managers keeping a running history of 1:1 conversations thats actually searchable and organized?47Views2likes1CommentDisplay Teams chat message with date stamp rather than relative day
Is there a way to force Teams Chat messages to display the date of a message rather than "yesterday" or "today"? e.g. display "27/08/2024" instead of displaying "yesterday 2:12 pm". (I'm creating this post on 28/08.) We use screenshots of Teams messages in our processes, and having to wait for the actual date to displayed invariably means taking the screenshot is forgotten. Immersive reader always shows the actual date, but not the recipient of the message. No help there.7.5KViews16likes16CommentsMaking Teams start on Secondary Monitor
Is there a way to force Teams to start on my secondary monitor (Screen 2)? Every morning I start Teams, it comes up on Screen 1 and I have to move it over to Screen 2 so I can do my work while still seeing the chat/calls windows. I checked settings in Teams as well as looking in Windows (Apps & Features, and Properties) but can't find anything that can set it to start on the secondary monitor instead of primary. It does not appear to retain the last screen position on exit.Solved43KViews2likes8Comments
