Microsoft Teams Live Events
What is the difference between a Live Event and a Webinar?
Live Events are intended for larger audiences with limited communication from participants. Think of it like a broadcast with a Q&A functionality. Webinars allow the creator to collect registrations, configure breakout rooms, disable attendee microphone and/or cameras, use more applications (not just slnamees, files, chat, vnameeo), and more. Additional information can be found at this Microsoft Answers page.
Does the moderator preview questions in Q&A before they're published?
Yes, new questions will show up under "New" and the moderator will be able to either Publish or Dismiss the question.
Can the window of a Live Event or Webinar be "popped out" into its own window?
Not at this time. To request or vote for new features, use the Microsoft Teams UserVoice site at https://microsoftteams.uservoice.com/.
Can the broadcast time of an event be extended after a live event has started?
You cannot change the time scheduled, however your event does not end when the time is over. The event will continue to be live until you end the live event.
Does the attendee report distinguish which countries are represented by attendees?
You might be able to discern the country from the UserAgentDetails in the report, but it is not a formal metric in the report.
Can the producer switch from one presenter to the next?
Yes. The producer controls what is in the live event.
Can live events be recorded and posted later?
Yes. That is one of the settings when creating the live event. The settings is in the "How will you produce your live event?" section.
