Auto-DND for Microsoft Teams

When you’re in your Private Office and join an external Microsoft Teams meeting, Roam automatically sets you to Do Not Disturb (DND) mode with a Teams icon.

How Auto-DND for Teams Works

There are two ways Auto-DND is triggered for Microsoft Teams.

1. Using the Microsoft Teams App (Windows only)

Auto-DND for Teams is enabled when all of the following conditions are met:

• You’re using the Roam Desktop app on Windows (Mac and Linux not currently supported).
• You’re in your Private Office before joining the Teams meeting.
• You’re using the Microsoft Teams app.
• You’re not already in DND mode (Roam will only switch you to Teams DND if your status is set to “Knock Required”).

2. Magic Minutes Desktop Recording (All Platforms)

You can enable Auto-DND for Microsoft Teams by using Magic Minutes Desktop Recording.

When you have a scheduled Microsoft Teams event on the calendar associated with your Roam email, you’ll receive a notification in the top-right corner of your screen shortly before the meeting starts. Select Join Meeting & Record Magic Minutes from this notification to automatically start Magic Minutes. This will lock your door and add the Teams icon to your office.

Note: This only works if you join using Magic Minutes. If you join the meeting without it, Auto-DND will not activate. After the meeting ends, you’ll need to manually stop Magic Minutes, as Roam is able to track when the calendar event starts, but not when the meeting actually ends.
