Class Teams Notebook Missing Class Notebook Tab

Question

The class notebook tab in the toolbar has disappeared so I can no longer distribute pages in my Teams Class Notebook. It has disappeared from both desktop app and also online 365 version of teams. There is no option in the settings for me to turn it back on. I am using Windows 11. Trying to distribute pages to my class so that I can access the "Mark Pages" feature (also found within missing tab). This is happening to multiple teachers in my district.

Dear respected DARLENE MULHALL,

Good morning! Thank you for posting in the Microsoft Community. We are happy to help you.

I'm sorry that you're having a problem, and from the situation you've encountered, we deeply understand the inconvenience caused and apologize for it.

According to your description, recently, we have received similar issues in this community. The class notebook tab removed/disappeared from the OneNote notebook online version of OneNote desktop client app.

Unfortunately, I have verified that there is currently no service incident. Since the issue happened to multiple users, I'm afraid this issue could be a temporary server-side issue that needs to be investigated through a remote section and collect logs and fixed on the backend.

I suggest you create a support ticket from the Microsoft 365 admin center and report the issue to the related team. The more reports they receive from different customers, the more likely they are to find something that affects mutual users, do an investigation, and fix it soon.

Note: To create a support ticket, you need to have Microsoft 365 admin privileges, and if you're not an admin for your Office 365 organization, contact the admin of creating a new ticket.

Please accept my apologies and I'm sorry for not resolving the issue and redirecting it to the related development team, but the fix for your concern can be discovered through the HAR logs and suggest that you create a support ticket from the Office 365 admin center, where the related team will investigate the issue further by collecting the HAR logs.

We are redirecting you to the appropriate one to resolve the issue. That's why we suggest you contact your administrator or IT department. They can create a support ticket. Once your admin or IT contacts them, they will help you as soon as possible.

I'm sorry and I apologize for that.

Now Service Health Dashboard (SHD) shows this incident was resolved at Wednesday, September 18, 2024, at 8:22 PM UTC.

If you are still experiencing this issue and you don't see an Service Health Dashboard post from Microsoft 365 Admin Center, it may indicate either a scoping issue or an independent problem. I recommend you raise a support ticket too, the related team will help you investigate this from back end and find the root cause. This would be the most efficient way in handling this case for you.

I'm sorry and I apologize for that.

I appreciate your patience and understanding and thank you for your time and cooperation.
