| MC468492 | (Updated) Authenticator number matching to be enabled for all Microsoft Authenticator users | Updated March 16, 2023: We have updated the timing of this change, below. Thank you for your patience. Microsoft Authenticator app’s number matching feature has been Generally Available since Nov 2022! If you have not already leveraged the rollout controls (via Azure Portal Admin UX and MSGraph APIs) to smoothly deploy number matching for users of Microsoft Authenticator push notifications, we highly encourage you to do so. We had previously announced that we will remove the admin controls and enforce the number match experience tenant-wide for all users of Microsoft Authenticator push notifications starting February 27, 2023. After listening to customers, we will extend the availability of the rollout controls for a few more weeks. Organizations can continue to use the existing rollout controls until May 8, 2023, to deploy number matching in their organizations. Microsoft services will start enforcing the number matching experience for all users of Microsoft Authenticator push notifications after May 8th, 2023. We will also remove the rollout controls for number matching after that date. Please note that we have changed the expected behavior for NPS extension to be even more admin friendly. NPS versions 1.2.2216.1+ will be released once Microsoft starts to enable number matching for all Authenticator users. These NPS versions will automatically prefer OTP based sign-ins over traditional push notifications with the Authenticator app. An admin can choose to disable this behavior and fallback to traditional push notifications with Approve/Deny by setting the registry key OVERRIDE_NUMBER_MATCHING_WITH_OTP Value = FALSE. Previous NPS extension versions will not automatically switch Authenticator push notification authentications to OTP based authentications. Please refer to the NPS extension section of the number match documentation for further information. [When this will happen:] Beginning in May 2023. |
Updated June 8, 2023: Number matching is now deployed and enabled for all users of the Microsoft Authenticator app! Additionally, due a change in the Microsoft Authenticator Authentication method policy, the feature configuration of Application Context and Location Context in tenants may have been impacted. End users were not impacted by this change, but if you made an update to these settings before 5/17 to set them to "disabled", please review your policy. If the policy has been reset to "default" and you'd like to explicitly set the state to be "disabled", you can leverage the UX or MS Graph API to do so. Note: Tenants who have the policy set to "enabled" were not affected by the change. Microsoft Authenticator app’s number matching feature has been Generally Available since Nov 2022!

We are planning to enforce this in the future but for now we recommend avoiding this pattern. We are making this change to align with our Calling Service, other Teams services, Azure Communication Services SDKs, and other Microsoft services. Numbers that start with a plus sign (+) will not pass through any normalization rules. Translated numbers that do not start with a plus sign (+), will pass through normalization rules more than once.

| MC555189 | (Updated) New Microsoft Teams Continuous Web Logs Extend the Window for Troubleshooting | Debug log files are automatically produced by the Microsoft Teams client, which can aid in monitoring and troubleshooting Teams. Also known as “Web logs”, Debug logs have historically been constrained by a limited memory buffer. If not collected by the user immediately after an issue occurs, the “signature” of the issue may not be present in the Debug logs, making it more difficult to resolve recent and future issues. This is being addressed with Continuous Web Logs (CWL). With CWL enabled, once the in-memory buffer reaches the limit, log lines will be saved to a file on user's machine extending the log capturing window up to one business day for an average user, providing a significantly larger window for troubleshooting. CWL is available to all tenants, but currently disabled by default. Teams' admins are able to turn it on using either of these methods: Assigning TeamsMediaLoggingPolicy via PowerShell cmdlets Setting a Feature Flag enableContinuousWebClientLogging to True. This can be done with assistance from Microsoft. As a temp solution, {enableContinuousWebClientLogging: true} can be added to hooks.json locally for the user. This will override the ECS setting for the user and enable CWL. Soon, Teams admins will have an additional option to enable CWL from the Teams admin center. [When this will happen:] On June 1, 2023, CWL will become the default for Teams users with the following desktop system specifications: Intel Core i3 and Core i5 (generation 10 or higher), Core i7 and Core i9 (any generation) excluding the following series: U, Y, G1-G7, UE, UL, M, QM Intel Xeon AMD Ryzen 5, 7, 9 and TR models excluding U series Apple Silicon (all series of M1 and M2 chips) Admins may use the methods listed above to enable CWL for Teams users with lesser system specifications. CWL will not be enabled by default for all machines to avoid the potential for user impact on lower-end devices. |
Updated June 8, 2023: We have updated the timing outlined below. Thank you for your patience. Debug log files are automatically produced by the Microsoft Teams client, which can aid in monitoring and troubleshooting Teams. Also known as “Web logs”, Debug logs have historically been constrained by a limited memory buffer. If not collected by the user immediately after an issue occurs, the “signature” of the issue may not be present in the Debug logs, making it more difficult to resolve recent and future issues. This is being addressed with Continuous Web Logs (CWL). With CWL enabled, once the in-memory buffer reaches the limit, log lines will be saved to a file on user's machine extending the log capturing window up to one business day for an average user, providing a significantly larger window for troubleshooting. CWL is available to all tenants, but currently disabled by default. Teams' admins are able to turn it on using either of these methods: Assigning TeamsMediaLoggingPolicy via PowerShell cmdlets Setting a Feature Flag enableContinuousWebClientLogging to True. This can be done with assistance from Microsoft. As a temp solution, {enableContinuousWebClientLogging: true} can be added to hooks.json locally for the user. This will override the ECS setting for the user and enable CWL. Soon, Teams admins will have an additional option to enable CWL from the Teams admin center. [When this will happen:] During June, 2023, CWL will become the default for Teams users with the following desktop system specifications: Intel Core i3 and Core i5 (generation 10 or higher), Core i7 and Core i9 (any generation) excluding the following series: U, Y, G1-G7, UE, UL, M, QM Intel Xeon AMD Ryzen 5, 7, 9 and TR models excluding U series Apple Silicon (all series of M1 and M2 chips) Admins may use the methods listed above to enable CWL for Teams users with lesser system specifications.

| MC560731 | (Updated) Microsoft Teams: Updating the Bookings app to the Virtual Appointments app | Updated June 2, 2023: We have updated this message to ensure visibility. Bookings is supported across multiple entry points spanning Web, Teams and Outlook, however there is lack of parity in the feature set across these entry points leading to an inconsistent user experience. This fragmented experience has resulted in high DSAT for customers that has provided feedback to Microsoft to unify and provide feature parity in Bookings across all entry points. The Bookings experience in Teams will soon be updated to match the web version on https://book.ms, ensuring consistent features across all endpoints. However, certain features like Forms, Queuing & scheduler-initiated SMS reminders for appointments will be available only on the new Virtual Appointments app on Teams. With the Virtual Appointments app, we are introducing an end-to-end B2C meetings solution that leverages Bookings as the scheduling engine and includes advanced meetings features such as real time meeting state update, chat with attendees in waiting room lobby via Queue view, rich analytics to shows virtual appointment usage trends to drive business outcomes such as no-shows. With this change, the updated Bookings Teams app will have feature parity and consistent user experience as Bookings web app. Virtual Appointments app will be a superset of the current Bookings Teams app experience embedded within the new app and will include advanced virtual appointments features. |

| MC565271 | (Updated) System preferred MFA method is Generally Available | In today's landscape, organizations and users utilize various authentication methods with varying levels of security. Unfortunately, users often select less secure MFA methods, even when more secure options are available. This may be due to convenience, lack of awareness, or technical limitations. To encourage the use of the strongest available method, we are introducing system-preferred authentication for MFA. This system prompts users to sign in with the most secure method they've registered and the one that's enabled by admin policy. This transition from choosing a default method to always using the most secure method will promote better security practices. If users can't use the prompted method, they can choose an alternative MFA method. [When this will happen:] We will begin rolling out in mid-July and expect to complete by mid-August. |
