Message ID: MC1000272
Coming soon for Microsoft Teams: Organizers for town halls, webinars, and meetings will be able to post and reply to questions using the title “Organizer” in the Q&A experience, instead of their names. This feature allows organizers to present a unified and official voice when responding to attendee questions.
This message applies to Teams on Windows desktop and Teams on Mac desktop.
This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 475856.
[When this will happen:]
General Availability (Worldwide, GCC): We will begin rolling out mid-March 2025 and expect to complete by late March 2025.
[How this will affect your organization:]
After this rollout, organizers and co-organizers can choose Organizer or their own name when posting each new question or discussion or when replying to a question in Q&A.
Attendees will not see such an option.
[What you need to do to prepare:]
This change will be available by default.
This rollout will happen automatically by the specified date with no admin action required before the rollout. You may want to notify your users about this change and update any relevant documentation.
