Protect sensitive content by removing guests from chat
By default, Microsoft Teams allows external guests to remain in the meeting chat — even after the meeting ends. That means sensitive content like transcripts, recaps or follow-ups may stay visible longer than intended.
With Decisions, meeting Organizers can now remove guests from chat during the meeting, giving you greater control over post-meeting visibility. Here's how:
- Click the three-dot menu in the Decisions side-panel (in-meeting)
- Select "Manage guests"
- Choose guests you'd like to remove
Coming Soon: Organizers will get proactive reminders — with quick access to guest management — while preparing for or running meetings, making it even easier to keep chat access accurate and secure.
These updates help you stay one step ahead when it comes to privacy and professionalism.
