Microsoft Teams: Microsoft Mesh app on PC supports guest access for events

Microsoft is bringing guest access for events to the Microsoft Mesh app on PC, which will roll out in October 2024. This new feature will allow external users to join Mesh events with a Mesh license, without requiring admin action. Event organizers will be able to invite guests outside their organization and future updates will include guest access on Meta Quest and anonymous participation. Moreover, this will enable broader collaboration and networking in Mesh events, allowing guests to sign in to the Mesh app and participate in discussions while maintaining secure access control. The feature will require a Mesh license for guest users, just like regular tenant attendees. Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 413713 is associated with this update.
This update will allow for better collaboration between users within and outside the organization as it will enable guests to join Mesh events as a guest user on PC. The feature will automatically roll out by October 2024, without requiring any admin action. It is recommended to inform the users in advance about this new feature, which will allow for broader collaboration in Mesh events.
