How to Record Attendance in Microsoft Teams?

Dear Microsoft,

Good day to you.

When we are using Microsoft Teams to hold a meeting/training, attendees will join or quit during the meeting occasionally. For example, 3 attendees join a meeting at 10:03 am, then 1 of them quit at 10:30. But the meeting ends at 11:00.

In this case, as the meeting administrator, it's hard to capture everyone's attendance record in a meeting for 100+ attendees. Now we are using a “stupid” method to screen capture the "currently in this meeting" list as an evidence for the attendance record. But as mentioned, it's hard to cover all, and what's worse, since we can only get a picture file, we need to type the attendees' info. in Excel manually, which is so time-wasting.

Is there a functionality available in Teams to record and export the real-time(or the overall) attendance directly and then we can download? Or is it in the development road-map of Teams?

Look forward to your reply.

Thanks & Best Regards,

Jasmine Lu

    just imagine that with 100 people, and compare the list with another in order to find who was missing...

    Only the meeting owner can do it

    Open up the participant list

    Then you can click on the arrow that says download attendance list

    Which then downloads, and saves the file into your download folder. 

    File gives you name, time joined, time left (and if they joined /left multiple times you will see them several times).

    Dear ArielleMoore, 

    The arrow button to download does not appear in my teams. 

    To download attendance I have found that you have to be the organizer of the meeting to have that option.

    Hi Arielle,

    Please advise how you were able to download the attendance list and export to excel?

    Is it only possible for the organiser of the training to be able to do this?

    Thanks
