Summary
                Microsoft Teams will update to allow users to control chat notifications based on their meeting RSVP status. Notifications will be disabled for declined meetings and enabled for accepted ones. Rollout timelines have been updated, with releases staggered from November 2024 to February 2025. Users may need to be informed about these changes.


More Information

Microsoft Teams users will soon be able to control how they get notified in meeting chats through RSVP to their meetings. When they decline a meeting, they will not receive notifications or see the chats in chat list; when they accept a meeting, they will receive notification for all new messages. This release of Microsoft Teams Meeting ID will be rolling out across Microsoft Teams Desktop, Mobile and Web and will provide an additional way for users to control their chat list by selecting which meetings they want to receive message updates from.

When this will happen:

Targeted Release: will begin rolling out early November 2024 (previously mid-October) and expect to complete by mid-November 2024 (previously late October). 

Worldwide: will begin rolling out early December 2024 (previously late October) and expect to complete by mid-December 2024 (previously early November). 

GCC: will begin rolling out January 2025 (previously early November) and expect to complete by mid-January 2025 (previously mid-November). 

GCC High: will begin rolling out mid-January 2025 (previously mid-November) and expect to complete by January 2025 (previously late November). 

DoD: will begin rolling out late January 2025 (previously early October) and expect to complete by early February 2025 (previously mid-October). 

How this will affect your organization:

You will not receive notifications or see chats from meetings you declined. You will be able to set how you want to be notified for meetings you RSVP with Accept or Tentative from Microsoft Teams settings.

What you need to do to prepare:

You might want to notify your users about this new capability to control meeting chat notifications by RSVP to meetings.
