OVERVIEW
This article describes how to accept or deny requests to join a team on Microsoft Teams.
Team members can send requests to add members to a team, and team owners will receive an alert for any pending requests. As a team owner, you have the ability to accept or deny requests to join your team:
- If you have a manually-managed team (i.e., team Owner(s) add/remove members via the "Manage Team" setting in MS Teams.), you can add members by accepting the pending requests you received on Teams. See the instructions below for more information.
- If you have a group-managed team (i.e., team Owner(s) add/remove members via SFU Groups), this functionality to accept/deny requests will not work. To add any members to your team, please add them via SFU Groups.
