Meeting organizers and teachers can now choose from three chat settings to help create a safe and inclusive meeting environment. Chats can be “Disabled”, preventing the organizer and participants from using the meeting chat. Alternatively, they can be set to “Only during the meeting”, allowing participants to send messages only during the meeting and the organizer to send messages at any time. Lastly, the default will be set to “Enabled”, allowing chats for all meeting attendees at any time. In addition, you can also choose whether or not to allow reactions during the meeting. Note: This is applicable to meeting scheduled in the Teams calendar or Outlook calendar. Meetings scheduled in a Team channel will use the Team channel moderation settings.
