How to explicitly state an external org is trusted
We have a B2B relationship with our parent company. They manage their own M365 we manage ours, but we added each others' domains as instructed in Cross-Tenant Access Settings and allowed access to each other's directory and calendar. However, on our Teams, their users pop up with a grey "external" badge stating "This person's org hasn't yet been added to your org's trusted list" even though Team's External Access Settings is set to Allow all External Domains, which means there is no trust list to begin with. Do the trusted domains have to be specified explicitly if so, is there a way to set this external domain as trusted without having to change "Allow all External domains" to "Allow only specific external domains"?
external calls with call queue or resource account.
Hi. I am setting up a call queue and an auto attendant for my customer service department. I already receive the calls and they are forwarded to my agents as I have configured in the call queue. My problem comes with the outgoing calls, I don´t want the customer service users to call directly. I want them to call through the resource account. I can do this by selecting the resource account in the teams (see image) I need that the default option is always the resource account or a way to make that when they call always do it through the resource account or the same call queue. Is it possible?
Restrict Users from Creating New Teams in Microsoft Teams
Hello together, I've do this here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/microsoft-365/solutions/manage-creation-of-groups?view=o365-worldwide#step-2-run-powershell-commands I create a group for users, that allowed to create new Teams Channels and run the script, but i didnt see in the updated settings the group ID: What im doing wrong? At the moment no one can create new Teams Channels, also the members of the GroupCreationAllowed Group. Can somebody help, whats the problem of the script is? Thx PeterPlanner task comments no longer send email notifications – critical regression
This change removed a previously existing core functionality without providing an adequate replacement. With the new Planner experience, task comments no longer trigger automatic email notifications to assigned users. This breaks a critical communication mechanism that many teams relied on for reliable task coordination. As a result, assigned users are no longer consistently informed about updates, introducing a high risk of missed information and operational issues in day-to-day work. There is currently no supported or enforceable alternative to ensure users are notified. Previous behavior: Task comments triggered automatic email notifications Assigned users were reliably informed Communication was traceable and consistent Current behavior: No automatic email notifications No configuration to restore this @mentions required (manual, error-prone, not enforceable) Microsoft Support has confirmed that this is by design and cannot be reverted. From an enterprise perspective, this is not just a design change, but a regression of critical functionality without an equivalent replacement. Request: Please restore automatic email notifications for task discussions or provide a reliable, enforceable alternative for notifying assigned users. Question to the community: How are you handling this change in real-world scenarios? Switching tools? Enforcing @mentions? Moving communication out of Planner? Would appreciate hearing how others are dealing with this.

Teams Transcription (Licensing / Button greyed out for some users)
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, AndiYOption 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, Olly
Inaccessible colour contrast for high text in Microsoft Teams in Dark mode on desktop
Issue: All highlighted text in Teams has poor colour contrast when in Dark mode on desktop. While some may be readable, none of the highlight colour options meet WCAG colour contrast minimums. How to reproduce Go to MS teams app on Win 11 and set appearance to dark mode. Create any default coloured text (this is white in dark mode) and apply any text highlight colour The result is inaccessible: it does not meet WCAG colour contrast thresholds and is very hard to read. Notes on behaviour On mobile (android MS Teams app) - the text colour changes to black which does meet the colour contrast minimum. This behaviour (illegible white text) on light backgrounds is also found on high contrast mode. This is different behaviour from MS word, which meets colour contrast minimum in a different way. Here highlight colours in dark mode are adjusted (e.g. the background highlight ffff00 --> is shifted to 393900 when dark mode is selected), and the text colour remains unchanged so there is enough contrast between the highlight and the white text colour. What happens next This needs a fix in make this accessible to users in dark mode so content can be read if another user has highlighted text. I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this but I was unable to register my MS account on the https://learn.microsoft.com/en-gb/answers/
