MS Teams Whiteboard - Compatibility with pen tablet
Hi there, I have a specific question around MS Teams Whiteboard. The functionality is great to have but many of the educators I work with, would have very specific things to draw on the board that is hard to draw using a mouse. Are there pen tablets out there that will definitely work with MS Teams Whiteboard to allow educators to draw more complex things with their class? I have looked at Wacom pen tablets but I can't seem to find a definite answer for this question. Any insight would be amazing!"We couldn't open this Whiteboard" when opening Whiteboard from tab in Microsoft Teams
Whenever i click the "Whiteboard" tab in a Team in Microsoft Teams, and select "Open the app" i get this error: "We couldn't open this Whiteboard. There was a problem with this sharing link. Please contact whoever invited you to the Whiteboard." See attached screenshots:
Guests can't share / create whiteboard
As a guest in a few organizations & I'm unable to start a whiteboard in any of them: Why is this? I assume there's a configuration option that controls this? Is there a limitation w/ guests in Teams? Additional Notes/Research This doc page describes how to enable for the tenant but nothing about guests: Manage access to Microsoft Whiteboard for your organization | Microsoft Learn I also reviewed this doc page but couldn't find anything about guest behavior: Manage sharing for Microsoft Whiteboard | Microsoft Learn Nor did I find anything here about guests & whiteboards: Manage meeting policies for content sharing - Microsoft Teams | Microsoft Learn search helpers: microsoft teams whiteboard guest access
My team cannot see the whiteboard
I recently created a new free Teams account and set up my first group, none of whom have a Teams account, so I invited them by creating a browser link. When I tried to share the whiteboard during our first meeting I could open the whiteboard and write on it but nobody could see it. I read that I needed to change some settings in the Teams Admin Center but when I tried to log into it I was told I wasn't allowed because my email address is not a company one. Does this mean that free accounts cannot use file sharing or blackboard?
