Access meeting chat before the meeting
Hi, I have booked a meeting through Teams. I would like to share a file in the meeting chat with the participants before the meeting starts, a few hours in advance. How can I access the meeting chat?

How to leave meeting chat as the organizer
Hi there! I recently moved to a new department where I work and although I deleted all of the meetings that I created, I am still receiving all chat notifications for said meetings. I cannot seem to find the option to leave the chat as I was the organizer. I can mute, but not leave. Can someone help? Thanks!

Bulk add contacts to Teams
Hi all, Is there any way to bulk add contacts to Teams? This is under the Chat > Contacts section that I am referring to? Whenever we have a new user join the company, they have to manually add contacts to Teams. There must be an easier way than this? Thanks.

Few Users not able to Chat during Teams Meeting
Hi All, Recently we are noticing issues where in few of the participants in a TEAMS meeting are not able to chat in the meeting chat; but are able to do so from the MS Teams full window. We don't have any restrictions for Message policy in Teams meeting. We noticed that the users have to Sign out and sign in multiple time for the chat feature to work. The issue is not happening in the Teams Web Client.

How to include external contacts, when create a Team Chat group?
I'm trying to include an external contact, who is definitely a Teams user, on a Team group chat but I'm having issues including their name when creating a Group Chat in Teams? I can absolutely Teams chat 1:1 with the external contact, but when I attempt to start a group chat by creating a Group name and then entering the names of the people I want in the chat, I'm only able to resolve my own domain's Teams members. Even entering the external user's full email address isn't being accepted as an "External" member in the Group. I've added the external user's domain as an accepted domain in Team Admin, so that level of permissions is there. What am I missing?

GIFs become gray boxes in chat
This is what happens every time I try to send a message in my Teams chat and add add any type of media. Only happens on phone. Been using for years with no problem until about 3 months ago.
