Manage email communications for webinars and town halls with PowerShell

Through PowerShell, you can manage whether organizers and co-organizers can edit email templates for their webinars and town halls. The -AllowEmailEditing parameter in the CsTeamsEventsPolicy cmdlet controls whether your users can edit email communication templates. The following table shows the behaviors of the settings for the -AllowEmailEditing parameter:

Setting value Behavior
Enabled This is the default value. Organizers and co-organizers can edit all email templates for their webinars and town halls.
Disabled Organizers and co-organizers can’t edit any email templates for their webinars and town halls.

The following example turns off -AllowEmailEditing so organizers and co-organizers can’t edit any email templates:

Set-CsTeamsEventsPolicy -Identity <policy name> -AllowEmailEditing Disabled
