Microsoft Teams, Microsoft 365 Experts
From Microsoft Corporation
Technical Bulletin MC364307 · Published Apr 25, 2022
Message Summary
Microsoft Teams users will soon be able to set individual “Show As” statuses to meetings. Currently the default “Show As” value for all the meetings an organizer creates is “Busy”.
This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 93145.
When this will happen:
We expect to begin rolling this out in late April and expect the rollout to be completed by late June.
How this will affect your organization:
As an organizer, while creating the meeting in the action bar you can choose to set Show As status of the meeting, when the participants RSVP, this status will automatically reflect for the meeting for them. You can also create private meetings and appointments for one-self and with participants using Show As.
As a participant, you can choose to set your individual status of the meeting through Show As independent of status set by RSVP. The updated status will reflect on your calendar.
Note: No impact for admin users.
