This call will join you to a conference
Hi All, since a week or two we have the problem, that when we invite a third party participant to a teams conference the person hears an announcement that "this call will join you to a conference". The person than has to press the "1" on the phone to join. This behavior is new and without us having changed any settings. Is there a way to turn this off, so the participant can join without that announcement? If not, can we change the language from english to german? Under "Meeting Policies" in the Teams Admin Center I found the setting "Automatically admit people" and changed it from "Everyone in the Organisation" to "Everyone" but nothing changed. Has anyone else had this problem and found a solution? Best regards, MarcMicrosoft Teams Audio Conferencing Service
