Step 3 - Assign a meeting room license

IT Pro audience

After you create the resource account, you need to assign a license to it. The resource account needs a Microsoft Teams Rooms Basic or Teams Rooms Pro license to sign into a Microsoft Teams Rooms device. For more information, see Microsoft Teams Rooms licenses.

Note

Microsoft Teams Rooms Basic and Microsoft Teams Rooms Pro are the two available SKUs for shared meeting room devices, including Teams Rooms. A Teams Shared Device license is required for Teams displays with hot-desking.

To assign licenses using the Microsoft 365 admin center, do the following:

  1. Sign in to the Microsoft 365 admin center.
  2. Provide the admin credentials for your Microsoft 365 tenant.
  3. Go to Users > Active users.
  4. Select the resource account you created earlier.
  5. In the right pane, select Licenses and Apps.
  6. Expand the Licenses section, select the license you purchased earlier.
