Description

The CsTeamsCortanaPolicy cmdlets enable administrators to control settings for Cortana voice assistant in Microsoft Teams. Specifically, these specify if a user can use Cortana voice assistant in Microsoft Teams and Cortana invocation behavior via CortanaVoiceInvocationMode parameter -

  • Disabled - Cortana voice assistant is disabled
  • PushToTalkUserOverride - Cortana voice assistant is enabled but without wake-word ("Hey Cortana") invocation
  • WakeWordPushToTalkUserOverride - Cortana voice assistant is enabled with wake-word ("Hey Cortana") invocation on devices where wake-word is supported
