This browser is no longer supported.
Upgrade to Microsoft Edge to take advantage of the latest features, security updates, and technical support.
It is great to see this eventuate and I hope development continues.
Screen sharing crashes teams app, Fedora 30 Workstation / Gnome desktop / Wayland. As this is Electron, it is worth noting the same problem was not observed using genuine Chrome browser
When the crash occurs, the app "restarts" and may require a new login.(actual process does not finish)
Video and audio work well, did not ask permission to use mic, cam.
Closing the Teams window leaves app running - tray widget sort of thing. Unclear if mic/cam would still be active (hot mic danger zone, perhaps)

Screen sharing now works for me on Wayland with Teams for Linux version 1.3.00.5153 and an up to date version of Gnome 3.36.2 on Arch Linux :-)

Do you do anything special? I'm also on Arch Linux using package teams v1.3.00.5153-1 and gnome-shell v1:3.36.3-1 with Wayland. As soon as I click on the Desktop that I want to share, teams is crashing.
Do you use any special environment variables or a different (AUR) package?
Using Teams in Chromium it works through pipewire, although with annoyingly many clicks.

I was able to share my entire screen with Teams while using it online in Chrome with Wayland and Fedora 32. You need to enable a flag in Chrome so that it can use Pipewire as a method to share the screen. I found out that this is not a Teams problem, but rather a Wayland issue on sharing screens. You probably can't share in Skype neither if you try, or in the Firefox test page mentioned in the link below. This is a temporary fix so that we can share the screen on Teams with Chrome, though the problem persists when we don't use Chrome and try to share the screen natively.
Follow the link for more details on the setup:

If it doesn't work, maybe try following the 2 links below too:
https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/Mutter/RemoteDesktop
https://jgrulich.cz/2018/07/04/how-to-enable-and-use-screen-sharing-on-wayland/
In my research, I tried all of them and now it works, so I can't tell if just following one of them will do it. I'm confident though that the first link only should do it.
OBS: I wouldn't know the technical details behind this, I'm just a regular Linux user (that needs to use Wayland) that found a fix to my issue and thought of sharing for everyone

Another vote for screen-sharing in Wayland.

Please support screen sharing in wayland. This is a blocker for us to use teams :(

Same here, we are using teams and it doesn't work with Wayland
