Setting up future meetings or classes using Teams calendar tools
To set up webinar registration in Teams, open the webinar from the Teams calendar and go to Registration > Configuration. That is where registration settings are managed.
Available registration options include:
- Event capacity to limit how many people can register.
- Require manual approval of all event registrations to approve or deny attendees manually.
- Enable waitlist for this event after capacity is full.
- Limit registration date to control when registration opens and closes.
To add questions to the registration form:
- Go to Registration > Configuration.
- Under Form, select Add field.
- Choose a preset field or Custom question.
- Mark it as Required if needed.
Important details:
- By default, registration stays open until the event ends unless a registration end time is set.
- Manual approval, waitlist, and limit registration date are Teams Premium features.
- If the Webinar option or registration settings are missing, an admin should check Teams admin center > Meetings > Events Policies > Allow webinars and make sure it is turned On.
- Organizers and co-organizers do not use the attendee registration flow. To test the attendee experience, use a private/incognito browser window or a non-organizer account.
- Anyone can register for a public webinar. Only members of the organizer's organization can register for private webinars.
