Summary

Microsoft Teams now allows users to share contact information of someone who is not in a chat, making it easier for others to get to know other collaborators. The rollout will begin mid-January 2024 and complete by late January 2024 for Targeted Release, and early February 2024 to late April 2024 for Worldwide, GCC, GCC High & DoD. No preparation is necessary, but internal documentation can be updated.
