Adding a User to a Group Call as Hidden, then later re-adding as non-Hidden, results in the user still being Hidden

We use the Graph Cloud Communications API for our Teams Calling Bot to add a Teams user into a Group Call as a hidden participant. If that hidden user leaves the group call or the Bot removes them from the group call, and the user is then re-added to the same group call as non-hidden, the user still remains hidden to other Teams users. Furthermore, since the user is still seen as hidden, the calling bot doesn't receive an update if that user then leaves the group call.
This appears to be a bug in the Teams call handling. Can you please confirm if this is so, and if this is likely to get fixed?
Any help in this matter will be gratefully received. Cheers, Dave

2023-08-17T09:36:34.95+00:00 Hi @Prasad-MSFT . Apologies, I should have detailed the procedure somewhat better.
Steps to Reproduce;
- Make call into Teams Calling Bot (from PSTN or Teams user)
- Bot Answers call [Using call: answer]
- Bot adds Teams user 1 to the call as normal (i.e., not hidden) [Using participant: invite]
- Bot adds Teams user 2 to the call as hidden [Using participant: invite and setting "hidden" to true in invitationParticipantInfo]
- Teams user 2 terminates the call from the client
- Bot adds Teams user 2 back into the call as normal (i.e., not hidden) [Using participant: invite and setting "hidden" to false in invitationParticipantInfo]
I guess steps 1+2+3 could be replaced by simply creating a group call with 2 users but the steps above follow how our testing was performed.
Hope that helps. Many thanks, Dave

Teams tag is mainly focused on the general issue of Microsoft Teams troubleshooting. According to your description, your question is not in our support scope. So I will remove teams tag from your thread. Thanks for your understanding!
