i am the town hall meeting organizer, but why we don't have the "Show participants" button on the toolbar? All the invitees have already been invited. I can only see "Attendees watching event".User's image

Hi @Cassie ZHAO

You are correct, in a town hall meeting you will see “Attendees watching event”, this is because town hall meetings are designed to be attended primarily as spectators, rather than seeing a list of all participants like in a normal meeting. This is by design in Teams.

If you need a participant attendance report:

During a meeting

  1. Select People  People or Show Participants button in your meeting controls.
  2. In the Participants pane, select More actions  Microsoft Teams more options iconDownload attendance list  Download button.
  3. Look for the file in your device's Downloads folder.

After a meeting

  1. In Teams, go to Calendar  Teams Calendar tab icon.
  2. Select the past meeting.
  3. Select Recap.
  4. To download the attendance CSV file for the meeting, select Download  Download button.

If you need detailed management strategies for participant attendance reporting, please refer to meeting-attendance-report.
