How do I remove the Teams meeting link from a calendar invite?!

Anonymous

I purposefully made sure that it was not toggled on. It is for an external meeting so we have to use zoom instead of teams as everyone doesn't have access to teams. When I made an edit to the attendee list it automatically added in a Teams link. I can't remove it and I've searched and searched for a way to remove it. Please help!

Thanks!
Jane

Hello Jane,

You can simply click on the Description field and press Ctrl + A to select and then delete Teams meeting link, then use the Zoom meeting Add-ins to insert a link for Zoom meeting and click Send, when the attendees receive the updated meeting invitation email, this meeting will display as a Zoom meeting rather than Teams meeting on their calendar. Please see:

    I don't appear to have that "Don't Host Online" option, neither in a New Meeting nor in the Customize The Ribbon.

    Regardless, you shouldn't need to customize the ribbon just to be able to remove an embedded meeting link. Please, MS, just enable removing any linked/embedded meeting as a part of the interface.

    Recommendation #1: If there's an embedded Teams meeting, the button should change from "Join Teams Meeting" to "Remove Teams Meeting" when in Edit mode.

    Also, this can make using Microsoft Teams Rooms devices quite frustrating to use (or impossible if the Org policy setting is to automatically add a Teams Meeting to all new meetings) to join "external" meetings. If it's impossible to replace an embedded Teams meeting, then there's no way to get the MTR to offer to join a Zoom or WebEx meeting.

    Recommendation #2: If there are multiple kinds of Join links in a meeting, the MTR should offer to join each. There's plenty of room for more "Join" buttons on the interface, and/or a dialog could pop-up asking which meeting to join (and maybe showing the # of participants in each).

    Hello gents,

    I've been reading all the threads hoping to find the solution to the same problem, and for those of you still have the issue I've found the solution: https://neroblanco.co.uk/2021/05/remove-teams-info-from-calendar-invite-dont-host-online/

    It works fine now no more initial Teams remaining links or shortcut!!! :D

    This is just a +1 that we are having the same issue, and am surprised that there isn't a single workaround. Having to rally large groups of people that accidentally enter the wrong meeting room has been a daily/weekly struggle & very much looking forward to a resolution

    Those instructions do not work for me. See image below of error popups about meeting details being different.

    Meeting saved but refused to send updates to participants.

    Second directive not really acceptable when a dozen seniors in my firm have already hit accept.
