Release notes for Microsoft Teams admin features
June 13, 2025
- Copilot generated summaries for call transfers on Teams Phone devices: Copilot generated summary provides an overview of the details and outcomes of transferred calls. It includes information such as caller's details, reason for the transfer, and the final resolution.
- Line key support for shared line and call transfers: This feature will enable you to assign shared lines to a line key, and view the boss and delegates of the line along with their presence on Teams Phone devices with touch screens. This feature allows delegates to pick up calls on behalf of the boss by pressing the line key and join active calls. Additionally, users will be able to assign the transfer action to the line key, enabling them to transfer active calls by pressing that line key.
- Personal meeting templates (Premium): End users will now be able to create personal meeting templates from Teams.
- Specify who has control of production tools in town hall: This feature introduces a new meeting option in town hall to specify who has control of the production tools during the event. Users defined here will have access to the controls in the 'Manage What Attendees See' and the 'Green Room.'
- Easily call in a presenter from the roster for town halls and webinars: This feature provides the ability for organizers and presenters to quickly add a missing presenter to an ongoing town hall or webinar, even if they weren't originally included in the event scheduling form. If they realize they've forgotten to add someone as a presenter, they can easily call them in directly from the participant roster. With just a few clicks, the missing presenter is instantly promoted to presenter status, allowing them to share content, control the presentation, or interact with the meeting participants.
- Microsoft Teams: Call quality reports for BYOD rooms in the Pro Management portal: As with any Microsoft Teams Rooms, admins can now access detailed call quality reports for BYOD rooms with associated peripherals in the Pro Management portal. These reports include call history and session details that help diagnose network, audio, and video issues. Reports in the Pro Management portal require a Teams Shared Devices license for the room.
- Town hall usage reports in TAC to have all the relevant usage on town hall events in the tenant: When town hall was released, there were some columns/data related to each town hall event that were missing in the TAC usage reports for IT admins. Now all the relevant usage related data is added to the town hall usage reports in the TAC portal for admins.
