About this tag
The teams events tag covers Microsoft Teams features and administration for webinars, town halls, and other managed events. Recent coverage focuses on planned changes to attendance and engagement reporting, including a separate policy for event reports rather than applying meeting settings to both. It also includes one-time email passcodes for anonymous external presenters, giving organizers and administrators an additional identity check for outside speakers. Other updates address production workflows, with new speaker-focused, content-focused, and content-only layout options for controlling what attendees see. The tag is useful for following Teams event governance, presenter access, reporting controls, and improvements to live event presentation across desktop and mobile.
