M365 Changelog: (Updated) Teams Room Windows – Simplified Device Registration Process for Microsoft Teams Rooms Pro Management Portal

MC565156 – Updated June 9, 2023: Pro portal enrollment will only work for devices that are in commercial cloud and not GCC-H – thus once the Pro Management agent is successfully installed and connected, devices with the Teams Rooms Pro license will be automatically enrolled and visible on the Pro Management portal. 

Microsoft is pleased to announce an enhancement to the device registration process for Windows-based Teams Rooms devices on the Pro Management portal, aimed at making it more convenient for IT admins.

With the upcoming Teams Rooms app update (v. 4.17) scheduled for release by the end of June 2023, Microsoft has streamlined the registration process for Windows-based Teams Rooms devices. IT admins will no longer need to manually download and install the Pro Management agent on each device.

Instead, the Pro Management agent will be automatically downloaded and installed onto the Windows-based Teams Rooms devices as part of the Teams Rooms app update. This improvement simplifies the agent deployment and device enrollment tasks for IT admins, reducing their workload.

Once the Pro Management agent is successfully installed and connected, devices with the Teams Rooms Pro license will be automatically enrolled and visible on the Pro Management portal. This eliminates the need for any additional user action, making the process more efficient.

Microsoft understands the importance of a seamless and hassle-free device registration experience for IT admins. This update aims to improve the overall management process and reduce friction when connecting Windows-based Teams Rooms devices to the Pro Management portal.

Stay tuned for the upcoming Teams Rooms app update (v. 4.17) to take advantage of the simplified device registration process and enhance your device management capabilities with the Pro Management service.
