Teams meeting info in "Create a Meeting" from Outlook on Mac
I'm currently using M365 via a new Macbook, and it is generally working well. However when I set a meeting with the "Create a Meeting" button with an email, it sends the Teams dial in info to the bottom of what may often be a long email chain. This makes it hard for recipients (particularly of the non-technical type) to find the connection details of the meeting just set up. Is there any way of setting Outlook (or Teams) so that the meeting info goes to the top of the invitation just sent?
Many thanks.
Sure, I can see you added to the uservoice.
That is the solution here, albeit frustrating. Best of luck on Microsoft fixing it
Best, Chris
Thanks for reaching out
Maybe there is a way, if it’s not doing this natively, to cut/copy and paste the join details to the top of the meeting. It puts it at the top of a meeting Outlook for Windows if you reply to an email with a meeting and add Teams meeting. But that functionality wasn’t always there.
If one doesn’t already exist I would 100% add it to https://feedback.Microsoft.com I'd vote up on it for sure
Hope that answers your question
Best, ChrisThanks Chris. The problem is that the Create a Meeting button sets up as a calendar invite, and you are not given a chance to edit the message - it simply has a binary switch for "Create Teams meeting", so you don't actually see the invite before it is sent. I'm told that it is particularly difficult if the recipient is on a handheld device (I'm working on a matter with c.20 colleagues from different firms, and cannot Reply with Meeting from Mac (which I can do on my Surface Pro, and which at least allows the editing of the dial in/connection details).
Hmm, interesting. Thanks for breaking it down. Does the mac version have 'add office meeting to all meetings' in it? I ticked this in the Outlook version and if I reply with meeting or choose schedule a meeting on an email the join options are auto added to the top. Would be interesting to see if that worked on the mac.
Best, Chris
