Q. Please tell me how to use a team join code in Microsoft Teams.
A. Please refer to the steps below.
When using a team join code, actions are required from both the team owner and the invited user.
- [Team Owner] Check the team join code.
- [Team Owner] Notify the prospective team member of the team join code.
- [Invited User] Check the received team join code.
- [Invited User] Enter the team join code in Microsoft Teams and join the corresponding team.
Please note: For lecture-related teams, the team join code may be communicated to enrolled students via TACT. In such cases, students will not be able to join the lecture team unless they perform the operation themselves.
For details on the actions required by the team owner and the invited user, please refer to the steps below.
