Paste a Teams meeting link and your agent joins as a guest from outside your organization. It waits in the lobby until the organizer admits it, then runs your scenario.

Before you start

  • A Teams meeting link (teams.microsoft.com or teams.live.com).
  • A plan that includes meeting platforms (Starter and above).
  • An organizer or presenter who can admit people from the lobby.

What participants see

1

Lobby

The agent waits in the lobby under its persona’s name.
2

Admit this bot?

Teams detects automated guests. When the organizer clicks Admit, Teams asks “Admit this bot?” and warns that it may record or transcribe. Click Admit again to let the agent in. This happens even if the agent was invited to the meeting.
3

In the call

The agent’s video shows the persona’s photo and name. It greets the room and follows the scenario.
4

Leaving

The agent leaves when the scenario ends, when the time limit is reached, or when someone removes it.

Good to know

  • Your IT team’s settings come first. Teams admins can let bots in after confirmation (the default) or block them entirely. If they’re blocked, the agent can’t join that organization’s meetings, and the call shows as not joined.
  • The chat notice may not appear. Many organizations don’t let outside guests use meeting chat, so the consent notice the agent tries to post may not show up. Tell participants yourself if consent matters.
  • Teams may label the agent “Unverified”. This is how Teams marks automated guests from outside the organization. The agent’s name already says it is an AI agent.
