Hello, collogues!
Less than month ago ms add features for anonymous guest, that not invited as member in team, that allow them to use chat in meeting.
Anybody make it works? I setup SharePoint sharing settings, guest settings in teams and guest permission in team and still cant use chat when join by link.

I tested it with guest, that i added by email as member, and he can use chat. But anonymous guest chat button is greyed out and note says that chat only for team member.
Making team public not help.

Thanks for attention

    Hi @70317574,

    What is your version of Teams client?

    I did a test in my environment, it seems there is no issue when guest user joining in Teams meeting, they can use IM normally in Teams meeting.

    Besides, please check again that your chat is turned on under guest access in Teams admin center.
