Hello,

On november 3rd i was able to create a onlineMeeting using the follow settings:

With this settings it is possible to anyone outside the organization start the meeting, without the organizer presence.

Today on november 6th, i can normally create the onlineMeeting with this settings, but the meeting only starts after the organizer joining the meeting.

Why this changed from 3 to 6 november ?

Permissions:

How to reproduce:

https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/users/${userId}/onlineMeetings

{
  "startDateTime": new Date().toISOString(),
  "endDateTime": new Date().toISOString(),
  "subject": "test subject",
  "isEntryExitAnnounced": false,
  "autoAdmittedUsers": "everyone",
  "outerMeetingAutoAdmittedUsers": "everyone",
  "joinMeetingIdSettings": {
    "isPasscodeRequired": false
  },
  "lobbyBypassSettings": {
    "scope": "everyone"

    Just found the solution:

    Go to MS Teams Admin Center > Meetings > Meeting Policies

    • Add a custom policy and change configurations bellow:

    User's image

    • Assign this policy to the user used on API Permissions config.

    Now the guests are able to join without the organizer on meetings created by this user through API.

    Thank you!
