More Information

Coming soon: Manage External access policies for users in your organization using Microsoft Teams admin center.

The new external access policy management page allows admins to easily view, add, edit, and remove external access policies for users within their organization, all through the Teams admin center UI. Previously, these actions could only be performed using PowerShell commands, but now they are also accessible directly in the Teams admin center.

When this will happen:

General Availability (Worldwide): We will begin rolling out mid-January 2025 and expect to complete by late January 2025.

General Availability (GCC): We will begin rolling out late January 2025 and expect to complete by late January 2025.

General Availability (GCC High): We will begin rolling out early February 2025 and expect to complete by early February 2025.

General Availability (DoD): We will begin rolling out mid-February 2025 and expect to complete by mid-February 2025.
