When a calendar item with a link to a Microsoft Teams meeting is migrated, the link to the original Teams meeting in the source tenant is retained. Use the Meeting Link Migration Task to update Microsoft Teams meeting links in the target tenant.
How it works: The meeting link migration task creates a new Teams meeting with the original meeting details in the target tenant. It sets the target user as the organizer. This new meeting invite must be accepted by all participants. The original meeting migrated to the target is canceled. The cancellation email is automatically sent out to the organizer and attendees.
Considerations
- The attendee list is not updated to match the target domain.
- A cancellation email is sent out to the organizer and attendees. Since the source attendees are not replaced with the corresponding target ones, the cancellation email is sent out to the source tenant.
- A new meeting is created if the migrating user is the organizer of that particular Teams meeting.
- A meeting is not recreated if the source meeting was created in Microsoft Teams through a Teams channel.
- On Demand Migration recreates present and future meetings, both one-time and recurring meetings. Meetings that happened in the past are migrated with Calendar migration.
- Recurring meetings with modified instances are reset to original settings after migration.
- The subsequent runs of the Meeting Link Migration Task will skip the meetings which were previously processed.
- Properties like a flag and categories are not supported with this migration.
