Hi Rajesh,

In order to best support our customers worldwide and accommodate new growth and demand during these unprecedented times, we are making a temporary adjustments within Microsoft Teams for OneNote, Word, PowerPoint and Excel. This may be the issue you are seeing.

• OneNote in Teams will be read-only for commercial and education tenants. To edit, please use OneNote for the web or the OneNote desktop app.
• Office documents in Microsoft Teams may open in View mode. You will be able to see the document content, but initially will not be able to make changes. You may or may not be able to edit within Teams.

If you are not able to edit within Teams, y ou will need to click on the options in the top right of the white bar above the document content and select "Open in Browser" or (for users with Office for Windows installed on their device) "Open in Desktop App". This will open the document in Office in a separate window from Teams and allow you to make changes.

Hope this helps and thanks for your understanding.

Hi Rajesh,

At this time the onenote app is read-only in the teams app. It's not possible to make it editable until Microsoft enables the feature for editing.
