Setting up an online meeting is a core experience for Outlook users. To meet the needs of an increasing number of remote workers and students, Outlook for iOS and Android has enabled add-ins to provide online meetings from third-party providers such as Zoom, BlueJeans, and Webex (among others). End-users in your organization will be able to use these add-ins to set up online meetings on third-party platforms.
Note
Both Outlook for iOS and Android support joining meetings from third-party online meeting providers. In addition, Outlook for Android also supports creating meeting requests for third-party online meeting providers.
How to enable third-party online meeting integration with Outlook for iOS and Android
Third-party online meeting integration is handled by add-ins that have enabled this functionality specifically for Outlook for iOS and Android. To set up this third-party meeting creation experience, an Exchange Online administrator must install the supported add-in(s) to the mailbox of an end user. Once installed, the third-party meeting creation button will appear on users' screens instead of a Microsoft Teams or Skype meeting button.
Note
Add-ins installed by your end users will not override the default Teams or Skype functionality.
The add-ins can be deployed using the following admin portals:
If all users are Microsoft 365 or Office 365 users, then use the centralized deployment portal. Centralized deployment provides the capability to install add-ins more granularly, such as to sub-groups within a given organization.
If a tenant has users' mailboxes in Exchange Server on premises, then use the ECP/EAC portal. More information is available here.
Creating an online meeting with a third-party add-in
The third-party online meeting provider will appear on the event creation screen in Outlook for iOS and Android, as displayed below. The third-party add-in replaces the Teams or the Skype buttons, but the button users do see will act in a similar way. After tapping the toggle button, the online meeting URL and text is retrieved from the third-party service and is inserted into the meeting body.
Users cannot save the meeting until the online meeting details have been retrieved.
Meeting providers displayed in the New Event screen
On a user's New Event screen, only a single meeting provider will be shown. If there are multiple options, the logic to select which provider is displayed is as follows:
Priority 1: Any custom online meeting add-ins that are installed (this is a developer scenario also known as 'side loading').
Priority 2: An online meeting add-in that was installed by an administrator.
Default selection: If there are no admin-installed online Web conferencing add-ins, the default option of Teams and Skype will be shown, as described in this article.
Note
Installing multiple add-in providers for online meetings on a user's device isn't supported and may result in unexpected behavior.
Developing add-ins for remote meetings in Outlook for iOS and Android
Add-in developers need to add the MobileOnlineMeetingCommandSurface extension point in their add-in manifest.
Information for add-in developers is available in Create an Outlook mobile add-in for an online-meeting provider.
Capabilities exposed to online meeting add-ins include:
UI-less command. Online meeting add-ins can only run in a UI-less mode, which means the add-ins don't have the capability to launch a task pane.
Display dialogue. Login flow can be handled using full-screen dialog.
The specific APIs that are exposed are listed here.
How users join meetings
Support for third-party remote meeting add-ins includes making it easy for users to join meetings. A Join button gets added to users' calendar events in Outlook for iOS and Android. Clicking Join will launch the online meeting app, if the user has it installed. If the app is not installed, the browser will launch and guide the user through the process to join the meeting.
Note that recipients of meeting invitations don't need to have the add-in for the corresponding third-party meeting provider installed on their devices in order to join the meeting.
-->Share to Teams from Outlook (Share to Teams) enables users to share emails, including attachments, from Outlook to any chat or channel in Teams.
Outlook add-in for Share to Teams
The Share to Teams feature requires an add-in for Outlook. This add-in is installed automatically whenever a user logs on to either the Teams Web app or the Teams desktop client.
Note
Be sure to review Add-ins for Outlook in Exchange Online and Client Access Rules in Exchange Online to make sure your add-ins for Outlook function correctly. Also, disabling connected experiences can prevent add-ins for Outlook from working properly. See Connected experiences in Office for more information.
Share to Teams uses the same transport mechanism as when a user emails a channel. For sharing to chats, emails (including email attachments) are copied to the sender’s OneDrive. For sharing to channels, emails and attachments are copied to the Email messages folder in SharePoint.
The Outlook add-in for Share to Teams uses requirement set 1.7, as detailed in Outlook add-ins documentation, which includes details on Outlook add-ins, environment requirements for Outlook add-ins, and the specific Outlook clients that are supported with requirement set 1.7.
Enabling or disabling Share to Teams
The Outlook add-in for Share to Teams can be selectively disabled or enabled on a per-user basis using the following PowerShell cmdlets.

Browsers and Single Sign-on
Share to Teams, in both Outlook on the web and Outlook desktop clients, relies on a browser WebView. See Browsers used by Office Add-ins for details on which clients use which specific browsers.
Important
Share to Teams requires both third-party cookies and local storage access to be enabled for users' browsers.
Share to Teams uses Single Sign-on (SSO), which means users don’t need to provide their credentials when using the add-in via Share to Teams. SSO for Outlook on the web supports https://outlook.office365.com/owa/extSSO.aspx and https://outlook.office.com/owa/extSSO.aspx reply URLs by default. For vanity domains, administrators need to add the appropriate Azure Active Directory reply URL.
