Create a Personal Meeting Link in Teams

1. Open your Teams desktop app.
    
2. Select the Calendar icon in the left rail.
    
3. Click Meet Now and enter an impromptu meeting (by yourself).
   
   
    
4. In the window that pops up, you can set a meeting title at the top, then click Join now.
   
   
    
5. Open the participants list, and click the link symbol to copy the meeting link to your clipboard.
   
   
   
   To edit the meeting options at this time, see the directions in the FAQ section below.

1. Paste the meeting link into a Word document or Outlook email.
    
2. Right click on the default hyperlink text: Join Microsoft Teams Meeting, then go to Edit Hyperlink... and edit the Text to Display to personalize it.
   
   
   
   Now you have a reusable link for unscheduled Teams meetings that will look similar to the one below:
   
   

Save the Word document or email containing your link so you can access it again later. (Pressing the Meet Now button again will give you a different link.)

You can also bookmark this link in your browser so you can easily access it when you need it.

Any time you need to send it out, copy + paste the link into your message to the participant(s).

If you need participants to enter one at a time, you can change the meeting options to make sure everyone waits in the lobby and Admit them one at a time.

1. In the Participants list, click the button to manage permissions. (See image below - it looks like a checkmark with an 'x' next to it.) 
   
   
    
2. This will open the Meeting options in your browser. Under Who can bypass the lobby? choose Only me.
   
   
    
3. Now everyone will have to wait to be let in by you.
