Details:
The Microsoft Teams Explicit Consent meeting policy is expanding to support group calls and Meet Now. When applied to a user, this policy will ensure that any recording/transcription initiated by that user in a group call or Meet Now will prompt all participants to provide consent for their media to be included in the recording and transcription. Participants cannot share audio, video, or screenshare/content-share until consent is given.
[When this will happen:]
General Availability (Worldwide, GCC): We will begin rolling out mid-November 2024 and expect to complete by late November 2024.

Direct effects for Operations**
Recording and Transcription Consent
If the Explicit Consent feature is implemented without preparation, users may experience delays in meetings as they must provide consent before any audio, video, or screenshare can be recorded. This could lead to frustration and reduced productivity during group calls and Meet Now sessions.

User Training and Awareness
Without prior training and communication about the new consent requirement, users may be unaware of the changes, leading to confusion and potential non-compliance during meetings. This could result in incomplete recordings or disruptions in meeting flow.
