Configuration Change: Disabling auto provisioning of Wiki with new channel creation

We’re making some changes to Wiki experience in Teams- channels. At present whenever a new private or standard channel is created then a Wiki is automatically provisioned for the channel and added as a tab in channels.

Starting in August 2022, we’re not going to provision wiki by default when a new private or standard channel is created. Users can add new wikis as tabs in channels from the channel store as and when needed, there is no impact on existing wikis that are already available.

Upcoming IT Admin Policy Change for Webinars on Teams

We are excited for our launch of the new webinar experience this year. This experience is a new intuitive end-to-end webinar solution addressing feedback received since initial webinar launch last year and built to scale for advanced webinars in the future. The new webinar will be found by clicking the new meeting dropdown in the calendar app and selecting Webinar.

With the launch of the new webinar experience, we are introducing a new policy called Teams Event Policy to TAP IT Admins and TAP customers. This policy (Settings: AllowWebinars and EventAccessType) will control the new webinar experience, and the current webinar experience will be controlled by the existing Teams Meeting Policy (settings: AllowMeetingRegistration and WhoCanRegister). As we make this transition from the current and existing webinar experience to a new one we are giving you the option to either use the new, current/existing, or no webinar experience. When we launch the new webinar experience, this experience will by default be ON (AllowWebinars: ON).
