Updated May 4, 2026: We have updated the timeline. Thank you for your patience.
Introduction
Microsoft Teams Rooms on Android will soon be able to join third-party meetings using Session Initiation Protocol (SIP). This capability enables seamless cross-platform interoperability, allowing users to connect to external meeting services directly from Teams Rooms on Android devices while maintaining a consistent and reliable meeting experience across diverse meeting platforms.
This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 558539.
When this will happen:
- General Availability (Worldwide): We will begin rolling out in early June 2026 and expect to complete by mid-August 2026 (previously early June).
How this affects your organization:
Who is affected:
- Organizations with Microsoft Teams Rooms on Android devices
- Organizations that host or join third-party meetings from shared meeting spaces
- Admins managing Teams Rooms on Android devices licensed with Teams Rooms Pro
What will happen:
- Users will be able to join supported third-party meetings (for example, Zoom or Webex) directly from Teams Rooms on Android devices when the meeting invitation includes a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) video meeting address.
- This feature is off by default. Availability of this capability depends on Teams Rooms Pro licensing and appropriate device configuration.
What you can do to prepare:
- Test the feature with your lower-ring Teams Rooms on Android devices.
- Prepare educational material for users in advance of release.
- Identify users who frequently collaborate with external organizations using third-party meeting platforms and communicate upcoming capabilities.
- Ensure that all Teams Rooms on Android devices that require this functionality are licensed with Teams Rooms Pro.
- Update internal documentation for meeting room usage if applicable.
- Communicate this change to your helpdesk and support teams.
