Out-of-box Controlled-content meeting template (Premium)

Originally posted by Microsoft Oct 3, 2023 Uncategorized 0 Comments

We are launching an out-of-the box template for meetings with external participants. The controlled content access template has preset defaults for meeting options to provide tight controls over lobby bypass, who can present, allowing chat across meeting lifecycle/in-meeting, and who can record.

This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 91286

When this will happen:

Standard Release: We will begin rolling out in mid-October and complete by late October 2023.

GCCHigh: We will begin rolling out early October and complete by mid-October 2023. 

GCC: We will begin rolling out early November and complete by mid-November 2023.

DoD:  We will begin rolling out mid-November and complete by late November 2023.

How this will affect your organization:

The use of this out-of-box template is to remove the manual set-up needed for meeting with external participants. One can access this template by going to Teams Calendar > Schedule meeting > Controlled-content meeting template. This template is also available in Outlook. Please go to Teams Meeting drop down and select Controlled-content meeting template.
