Enable users to record their name when they join a meeting in Microsoft Teams

When you set up Audio Conferencing in Microsoft 365 or Office 365, you get phone numbers for your users through an audio conferencing bridge. A conferencing bridge can have one or more phone numbers that are included at the bottom of the meeting invite. These phone numbers allow users to join Microsoft Teams meetings by dialing in.

As an admin, you can manage whether callers who dial in can record their name before joining a meeting.

Manage whether callers can record their name in the Teams admin center

Using the Microsoft Teams admin center:

  1. Navigate to Meetings > Conference Bridges.

  2. At the top of the Conference Bridges page, select Bridge settings.

  3. Enable or disable Meeting entry and exit notifications.

  4. If enabling entry and exit notifications, choose Names or phone numbers for Entry/exit announcement type, and then toggle Ask callers to record their name before joining a meeting to On.

  5. Select Save.

We are frequently updating how you can manage features, so the steps here might be a little different from what you see.
