How can I make my Microsoft Teams meeting secure?
Microsoft Teams does not allow you to schedule a meeting in a private channel.
To arrange a confidential meeting you should:
- First begin by creating a private channel:
- Click on the Team which contains the users you wish to have a private meeting with.
- Click the 3 dots next to the team name and select Add Channel
- Name the meeting appropriately and select the Private
- Next click on the new private channel you created and add the correct users with the Add Members option.
- Click on the new private channel and select Meet in the top right hand corner and open a meeting to copy the meeting invite link (instructions below)
- In the meeting select Participants page and select Share invite and then Copy meeting link.
- Once you have the meeting link go to your Outlook calendar, create a Private meeting and invite the correct users you wish to join

- Select Response options from the meeting toolbar.
- Select Allow forwarding to remove the checkmark.
- Paste the Invite link in the description or the message of the meeting
- Make sure that all attendees are aware of the confidential nature of the meeting and the importance of not making the join link available to others.
