oh thats gonna be interesting to debug. not sure what the request needs to be to show a join button

@PeerRich I think it depends on how the Teams meeting is created.
When creating a meeting directly in Teams without a participant, it also doesn't have the Join. Also, just adding Teams as a location won't create a Join button either.

@PeerRich I stumbled over that too, my gut feeling is that this is because the teams link (https://teams.microsoft.com/l/meetup-join/19%3ameeting_.... is in the same line as other info from the booking (in my case: "Description Using my MS Teams...."). When I split that with a newline and then created a new event directly in Teams, it recognized it and I got the Join button. Maybe that's all it is? (I hope!).

That said, there is a chance that Teams wants to extract the URL into the location field itself, and when it is told that the location is https://... it just takes it as granted and doesn't parse it for info?

Hi,

Any movement on this?
The Teams meeting email doesn't look great at all. There's no Join button, the text comes in all in one line, clients are having difficulty with this.

I just want to chime in an say that I am also having the same issue as @lyk2020 in the screenshot below. Event details are all in a single line. "Join" button reappears if I manually update the invite to be on separate lines.
