Microsoft Teams: Users can join town hall and webinars using Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) codes

Coming soon for Microsoft Teams: Organizers and presenters will be able to join town halls, webinars, and structured meetings seamlessly using a Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) code. Organizers and co-organizers can share the dial-in codes to presenters from the event scheduling form. They can also call presenters from the roster as well. Once connected, presenters will automatically join the Waiting Room for attendees and then an organizer or co-organizer can promote presenters from the roster to the green room or the live session, to help ensure a smooth and efficient experience. This message applies to Teams for Windows desktop, Teams for Mac desktop, Teams for the web, and Teams for iOS/Android.
