Overview:

Channel meeting invitations will now allow channel meeting organizers the ability to share invites on personal calendars of all channel members.

This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 142405

When this will happen:

Standard Release: We will begin rolling out in mid-September 2023 (previously late August) and expect completion by late October 2023 (previously late September).

How this will affect your organization:

Often, channel meetings get missed since users are not appropriately notified about them. With the added enhancement, meeting organizers can turn a toggle button on the scheduling form when scheduling a channel meeting. Once the toggle is turned on and meeting is saved, all channel members will be notified of the meeting on their main work calendar.

What you need to do to prepare:

There is no action needed to prepare for this change. You may want to notify your users about this change and update any relevant documentation as appropriate.
