New Meeting Chat Experience
Hosts can allow meeting participants to communicate as effectively and efficiently with in-meeting chat, as they do with Team Chat. Participants will be able to delete their messages, reply in threads, quote, format their messages with additional rich text formatting options, preview images directly in the chat thread, capture and send screenshots, and react to messages with emojis.
Creation of breakout room based on poll results
Meeting hosts can choose to Create Breakout Rooms while setting up polls. If this option is selected, the host can split participants into separate, smaller rooms based on participants’ answers. Hosts can set a limit for how many participants are placed in each breakout room and move/exchange participants after launching the breakout rooms.
