Deutsch | Online Meeting Link

Teams app customization can change how users recognize Online Meeting Link in your organization, for example its displayed name, descriptions, or icons. It does not change meeting creation, Graph permissions, the form’s language, or its light/dark/high-contrast behavior.

Check support first

Complete installation and Teams synchronization first. Use a Teams administrator account with a Teams client license.

  1. Open Teams admin center > Teams apps > Manage apps.
  2. Locate Online Meeting Link by its published identity, not just a possibly customized name.
  3. Show the Customizable column through Edit columns, if necessary.
  4. Check whether the app is marked customizable. Open its details and inspect which customization fields are actually offered.

Do not assume the current package supports customization. The developer-provided Teams manifest does not explicitly opt into administrator customization. The deployed app’s Customizable status is the prerequisite.

If the app is not customizable, stop here. It can still be installed and pinned, but these branding steps are unavailable. Enabling customization requires a separate developer/package change and validation; renaming a SharePoint page does not enable it.

Apply default branding, if supported

  1. Record the current values and prepare your approved names, descriptions, and icon assets.
  2. On the Online Meeting Link app details page, select Actions > Customize, or the customization/edit action offered by your admin-center experience.
  3. Change only the fields displayed. The developer controls which properties can be customized; follow the current UI’s size and format validation.
  4. Select Apply, review the updated app details, and select Publish when prompted to publish the customization to your organization’s store.
  5. Allow time for propagation. Microsoft notes that changes can take a few hours; do not expect all clients to update immediately.
  6. Verify the listing and app identity in Teams web and desktop using a test user, then open Online Meeting Link and create a test meeting.

Default customization is tenant-scoped and applies to users allowed to use the app. It does not automatically install it or limit access to a group. Maintain approved wording for your audience; branding is not a replacement for the app’s English/German localization.

Optional audience-specific branding

Microsoft also supports additional customizations for eligible apps. If Online Meeting Link exposes that capability, use Settings and Customization on its details page, add the customization, and associate it with the appropriate setup policy through Manage assignments.

This is optional and separate from the one-group installation and pinning guide. You do not need an additional branding variant to install the app for one group. Check effective policy assignments and access before validating a variant.

Reset and verify

If you need to undo default branding, open the app details and choose Actions > Reset to default, then confirm as prompted. For an additional customization, remove its setup-policy assignment before selecting the customization under Settings and Customization > Remove. Record and review those assignments separately. Allow propagation and check the result with a test user.

After an Online Meeting Link package update or Teams resynchronization, recheck customization support, branding, and app identity. Do not assume that an unverified generated package preserves every customization.
