Microsoft Teams: Assign staff and Duration for On-demand virtual appointments

The Virtual Appointments app provides a central hub for all your virtual appointments needs in Microsoft Teams. The app enables a seamless end-to-end experience for business-to-customer engagements.

On-demand virtual appointments enable customers and clients to meet with a staff member of a business without booking a schedule in advance 

You can now enhance the efficiency of On-demand appointments by assigning specific duration and staff members to handle On-demand services. This will ensure that when an On-demand appointment is received, the designated staff member is promptly notified to attend to the appointment from the virtual appointments app.
