Microsoft Teams Administrator Roles

As you know, Microsoft has created four new roles specifically for admins responsible for Microsoft Teams.

Let’s dig in which roles do we have available in O365:

They can also manage Office 365 Groups.

Teams communications admin

Can manage calling and meeting features of Microsoft Teams, including phone number assignments and meeting policies.

They can also use call analytics tools to troubleshoot issues.

Teams communications support engineer

Teams communications support specialist

But I want to use PowerShell to check the roles and assign them

Yes, you can use PowerShell to check it out those roles and assign them, let’s do it 🙂
