External Presenters in Teams Live Events

Anonymous

Can external presenters be tied to a Gmail account and present?  Are there limitations because we tested with two external presenters after adding them into the Tenant as guests and they couldn't join and if they did join they couldn't present.

Where is a list of steps for setting up an external presenter?  Are their videos to show a presenter how to share their screen?  Why is it that you can only queue up the first item and presenter and send live and you can't queue up the next...there is no point to the queue if it can't be used to get stuff ready to show.

Why can't we include audio in a presenters' material?

    Hello All

    As usage of Meetings and Live Events, has increase many fold, here is an attempt to create a document on specific topic of Having Guest Presenter on Live Events. We need simple documents - which allow non-IT experts to do these things, because in many small setups, there is no IT specialist. 

    I am not a professional IT person, but went through some search and then trial and error. 

    Hope that more knowledgable persons improve this document.Guest Presenter for Live Events document

    Feel free to copy the document and improve it and also point out any errors.

    Regards

    I had not thought of that! I may give that a try, too. Thank you.

    Did you first add the (never used Teams before) email of the EXTERNAL to any Teams you have created ? We created a Teams called "External Presenters" just to keep track within our group that deals with EXTERNALS.

    Even after doing  this required step, we still see sporadic success.

    Yeah we have no problems as well. As long as both organizations have Teams then it works without issue.  I think the issue here is if you try to have an external presenter without Teams join in, they cannot, they get kicked over to attendee.  We had to have the presenter dial in via the dial in number for presenters.  Not ideal but that's the work around.
