Overview

In Microsoft Teams, chat allows participants to exchange messages to each other before, during, and after meetings and webinars. For town halls, only presenters, organizers, and co-organizers can use chat with each other. As an admin you can control:

  • Whether participants in your users' meetings and webinars can read and write chat messages.
  • Whether users in your organization can use chat when they're participants in Teams meetings hosted by other organizations where there isn’t a trusted relationship.

Manage chat messages for your organization's Teams meetings

The Meeting chat setting controls whether participants in your users' meetings can and read and write chat messages. This setting doesn't apply to channel meetings and is a per-user and per-organizer policy.

In addition to this Meeting chat policy, your users have their own Meeting chat control in their meeting options. If the admin policy isn't set to Off for everyone, organizers can manage chat availability in their meetings and webinars. They can choose to set chat to On, Off, or In meeting only. For more information on your users' Meeting chat controls, see Chat in a Teams meeting.

Teams admin center value PowerShell value Behavior
On for everyone Enabled All participants can read and write chat messages; the organizer's Allow meeting chat settings control the chat experience. Organizers can also manage chat availability in their meetings and webinars.
