Enable Guest Access in Microsoft Teams

“How do you turn off Microsoft Teams Guest Access?” This question came to me in several forms from three different customers following this weeks announcement around “Expand your collaboration with guest access in Microsoft Teams.” With Teams as a feature on by default when they rolled out these customers wanted to make sure they could turn off the access. The good news for them is that by default it is not on. For all the other customers I have had asking for guest access the news is even better. Not only is the capability rolling out but it is simple to configure.

In this Modern Workplace Tips video I walk users through the enabling of Teams Guest Access in a demo tenant I administer that just received the rollout.
