You can use meeting template policies in Microsoft Teams to determine which meeting templates are available to users in your organization.

Specify which meeting templates are available to users

By default, the Global (Org-wide default) meeting template policy allows users to see all available templates, including default templates and any custom templates that you've created. If you want to limit which templates are available for different people or groups, you can create policies specifying this.

To create a meeting template policy

  1. In the Teams admin center, expand Meetings and select Meeting template policies.
  2. Select Add.
  3. Type a name and description for the policy.
  4. In the Viewable templates list, select any templates that you don't want users with this policy to see, and then select Hide.
  5. Select Save.

Once you've created the policy, you need to assign it to users or groups. See Assign policies to users and groups for more information.

Change which meeting templates are visible to users

You can update a meeting template policy if you want to change which templates are available to the users with that policy.

To edit a meeting template policy

  1. In the Teams admin center, expand Meetings and select Meeting template policies.
  2. Select the policy you want to change, and then select Edit.
  3. To make a viewable template hidden, select the template in the Viewable templates list and then select Hide.
  4. To make a hidden template viewable, select the template in the Hidden templates list and then select Show.
  5. Select Save.
