Question
How do I create a Microsoft Teams meeting?
Solution
Note: If you don't see a "Meetings" tab in the Microsoft Teams application (browser, web, thick client, or mobile client), it means your email account is not yet using Office 365 email (Exchange Online). Instead, you can create a Microsoft Teams meeting by doing the following:
Windows
Note: You must have the Teams client for Windows, and Outlook 2013 or higher, installed on your Windows machine before these steps will work.
- Open Outlook.
- Select the Calendar icon on the bar near the bottom of the screen.
- Select New Teams Meeting.
- This will Teams-enable your meeting with a link to your Teams meeting.
Mac
Note: You must have the Teams client for Mac, Office 2019, Outlook for Mac version 16.23 and later, and an Exchange mailbox homed in Exchange Online before these steps will consistently work.
- Open Outlook for Mac
- Select the Calendar link on the bar near the bottom of the screen
- Select Meeting from the bar near the top of the screen
- To Teams-enable your meeting, select the Teams Meeting button. A Teams meeting link will populate the meeting invite once you send it to recipient/s.
