Howdy folks,<\/p>\n

Today I am excited to let you know that we’ve just enabled Guest Access in Microsoft Teams<\/a>, built on the B2B collaboration features of Azure AD!<\/p>\n

You can now enable partner collaboration in Teams for interactions across chat, apps, and file sharing, all with the ease of use and enterprise-grade protection Azure Active Directory has long enabled for your employees.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Now anyone with an Azure Active Directory account in any organization can be invited as a guest user in Microsoft Teams!<\/p>\n

Customers have already created more than 8 million guest users using the B2B features of Azure AD and we’re only getting started. Adding support for Microsoft Teams has been a top customer request, so we’re excited to turn on this new capability to keep the momentum going. I hope you’ll give it a try today!<\/p>\n

So, go ahead, log in to Teams<\/a> today and invite your partners to work with you.<\/p>\n

And as always, connect with us<\/a> for any feedback, discussions, and suggestions. You know we\u2019re listening!<\/p>\n

Best Regards,<\/p>\n

P.S.: We are already working to add additional Azure AD capabilities in Teams, including support for external users with any corporate or consumer email account. Look for more news on that soon!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
