Affected Teams behavior in Chrome due to privacy sandboxing
In January 2024, Chrome will be rolling out privacy sandboxing in the web to 1% of their users, and by the late 2024 general rollout is expected to happen. This rollout will affect some Teams experiences in Chrome. Although Teams recommends using the desktop client if you are a part of this rollout cohort, the new Teams web app will display a banner and require users to click it every 24 hours to remain signed in for users who can't use the desktop app. Additionally, the new Teams web app may include embedded experiences, such as apps, that may no longer work. Users will have the option of opening the embedded experience in a separate browser tab or using the Teams desktop app. Teams chat in Outlook web app and Dynamics 365 may also be affected, along with the 'Share to Teams' dialog found in Outlook and other web apps or sites. To avoid these issues, it is recommended that enterprise administrators use the BlockThirdPartyCookies and CookiesAllowedForUrls policies to ensure their users are not impacted.
If you access Teams in the Chrome browser, it is crucial to be aware of these changes and prepare accordingly. The post Affected Teams behavior in Chrome due to privacy sandboxing appeared first on M365 Admin.
