MS-700 Monitor, Report on, and Troubleshoot Teams Practice Question
You are a Teams administrator. A user reports that they cannot join a scheduled Teams meeting and receive an error message stating that the meeting has expired. You need to check if the meeting organizer set an expiration time for the meeting. Where can you find this information?
⚠ Common exam trap
The trap here is looking in administrative policies or client settings for a per-meeting setting that is actually defined by the organizer in the meeting invitation.

Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
In the Outlook calendar item for the meeting
Meeting expiration is a feature that allows organizers to set a time after which the meeting link will no longer work. This setting is configured during meeting creation in Outlook or Teams, and the expiration details are stored within the meeting invitation. Checking the Outlook calendar item for the meeting is the correct way to verify if an expiration time was set, as it reflects the actual meeting configuration.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
In the Teams client, under Settings > Meetings
Why it's wrong here
The Teams client settings for meetings control personal preferences like whether to automatically join meetings, use background effects, or set a default microphone. They do not display or manage meeting expiration settings for scheduled meetings. This is a user-level setting, not where meeting-specific expiration is configured.
- ✗
In the Teams admin center, under Meetings > Meeting policies
Why it's wrong here
Meeting policies in the Teams admin center control features like who can start meetings, whether recordings are allowed, and participant capabilities. They do not contain information about individual meeting expiration times. Meeting expiration is a setting applied to the meeting itself, not a policy, so this location is incorrect.
- ✓
In the Outlook calendar item for the meeting
Why this is correct
Meeting expiration is a setting that can be configured by the organizer when scheduling a Teams meeting in Outlook. The expiration time is included in the meeting details, often in the body or as a separate field. Checking the Outlook calendar item for the meeting will reveal if an expiration time was set, which explains why the user cannot join after that time.
- ✗
In the Microsoft 365 admin center, under Settings > Services > Teams
Why it's wrong here
The Microsoft 365 admin center's Teams settings include organization-wide configurations like guest access, email integration, and meeting settings, but they do not show individual meeting expiration times. This location is for tenant-level settings, not per-meeting details, so it would not provide the needed information.
