Microsoft Teams: Configure External access policies in TAC
This article discusses how to configure external access policies in the Teams admin center (TAC). Previously, these policies were only available via PowerShell, but now, you can manage them through the TAC user interface. Microsoft Teams, a collaboration platform, is now able to support external access policies which allow users outside your organization to access your teams, channels and certain files. The new feature is a part of Microsoft Teams and was released in December 2024. This article provides an easy-to-follow guide on how to manage these policies, for users of the desktop or cloud platforms on a worldwide (standard multi-tenant) instance.
If you're an IT professional managing access to your organization's Teams, this article is a must-read to learn how to streamline and secure external collaboration in this powerful platform.
