You can join Microsoft Teams meetings from your device with Cloud Video Interop (CVI) for Microsoft Teams or with Direct Guest Join (WebRTC). This is set up by your system administrators and depends on the type of device you have. If your device is configured with CVI, you can simply enter the Video conference ID and the passcode to join the meeting. You can also join with One Button to Push (OBTP): when users schedule Microsoft Teams meetings and include Cisco devices, a join button appears on the devices right before the meeting begins. OBTP works whether your device is configured with WebRTC or CVI.

Join a Microsoft Teams meeting directly on your Cisco device by tapping the Microsoft Teams button.

Joining with Meeting ID

Joining with Direct Guest Join uses WebRTC. You need the meeting ID and meeting passcode provided in your calendar invite in order to join with your device. Note that the meeting ID cannot be used to join with Cloud Video Interop (CVI) for Microsoft Teams. When joining with CVI, you need to enter the Video conference ID.

This feature is enabled by default, but admins can change the visibility of this option.
  1. Tap the Microsoft Teams button on your home screen.

  2. Enter the meeting ID and the passcode. The call controls and the self-view fade away after a few seconds. When a presentation is shared, the device displays the presentation from Microsoft Teams. However, the content shared on screen is not interactive. On dual screen Room Series devices, the second screen isn’t used.

Joining with Video conference ID

When you enter the Video conference ID, the system combines this information with the default hostname to create the correct meeting address (SIP URI). This configuration is managed by your organization's administrator.

1

Tap the Microsoft Teams button.

2

Enter the Video conference ID and calling address provided in the Microsoft Teams meeting invitation.


Once in the meeting, your device displays the video stream from Microsoft Teams on up to two screens (with the layouts: grid, stack, overlay, focus, prominent) and the call controls. For more information on layouts on Cisco devices, see Screen layouts for Cisco devices. The participant list is available, indicating who is muted. The recording indicator appears on screen when the meeting is recorded. When a presentation is shared, the device displays the presentation from Microsoft Teams. However, the content shared on screen is not interactive.
