[Improvements] The Teams Calendar now has the ability to modify meeting invitations prior to sending them to attendees, improving its functionality.

Recently, Microsoft has made a significant update to the Teams Calendar Functionality. Prior to this update, when creating an invite using Teams Calendar, users had to send the meeting invite first and then go back to modify the meeting options. However, with the new update, users can now modify the meeting options during the initial invite creation process. 

Enhancements have been made to the Teams Calendar, allowing for modifications to be made to meeting invitations before they are sent to attendees. This significantly improves the functionality of the calendar and enhances the overall user experience.

This option is available for both Windows/Mac thick clients and browser clients.

[Change] Customize your Microsoft Teams Tag tenant-level settings to your preferences!

Tagging in Microsoft Teams is a feature that allows you to:

- Create custom groups of people within a team or channel

- Mention or message those groups using @tags

- Manage tags and assign them to members

- Use tags to filter chats and notifications.

IT Admins have an option in TAC on how you want to assign permission to your organization's users to manage the tag. Either you can configure it to allow only Teams Owner access to tag management on the Teams Group/Channel, or you want your members to also want to manage it.

Currently, the default setting is "Teams Owners" only, and there is a change coming next month to change the default settings to the "Team Owners and Members" option.

If you have already selected your Tag Management settings to "Team Owners and Members", your tenant will not be impacted by this change. 

However, if you have not made any changes to your Tag Management settings, Microsoft Default settings will be applied to your tenant. Currently, the Microsoft Default settings map to the "Team Owners" value, but this update will modify it to "Team Owners and Members".

In my opinion, it is highly advisable and considered to be standard procedure to maintain responsibility and control within the purview of the Team Owner. This ensures that they possess the necessary knowledge and capability to effectively oversee and direct their team.

If the owner wants to grant additional access to their team members, they have the option to adjust individual team-level settings instead of relying on IT admins or Microsoft to make changes at the tenant level. If you prefer to maintain Team Tag management under the "Team Owner," it's time to manage any necessary alterations.

How to change the settings in TAC?

• Sign in to Microsoft Teams admin center at https://admins.teams.microsoft.com.

• In the left navigation pane under the Teams section, select Teams settings.

• Under Tagging section, select your preference for "Who can manage tags"
