Hi Everyone,

Yesterday we had a rather confusing CPEX meeting and I wanted to share my lessons learned. Dan (not to be a finger point at all) sent out an email a few weeks ago showing how we could schedule Teams meetings directly from our Outlook calendar. I followed the instructions and never really saw a difference, in fact, I forgot I did that.

It turns out, this enables a “Team Meeting” icon at the top of the calendar invite which will automatically add the link at the bottom when you send to attendees.

The issue was that I created a WEBEX meeting but the “Teams Meeting” icon was engaged which meant that I had two meetings (Teams and Webex) going on at the same time. Half the group went to the Teams and half the group went to Webex. Please be careful if you engaged the icon and didn’t realize it. See below for the scheduling so you can see what I’m talking about.
