Create a Teams invite using Outlook online (webmail)
When scheduling a Microsoft Teams meeting with multiple participants—especially in situations where privacy is important—it’s essential to ensure that attendees’ contact details remain confidential.
Whether you're hosting a webinar, client meeting, or internal session involving external guests, Outlook on the web offers a simple way to hide the attendee list.
This guide walks you through the steps to create a Teams meeting without exposing participants’ email addresses to one another.
Log in to Outlook on the web
Go to Microsoft 365 (e.g., login.microsoftonline.com) and sign in.
2. Open your calendar and click “New Event” to begin.
3. Under “Response options,” enable “Hide attendees list” (this is off by default).
4. Enter the meeting title in the “add a title” field
5. Add your participants’ names or emails (since the attendee list is hidden, they won’t see one another).
6. Choose the correct date and time
7. Choose “Add online meeting”, and select Teams Meeting (you may need to toggle it on)
8. Write a meeting description and attach any relevant files.
9. Click “Send” — your invitees will receive the link, but won’t see others’ contact details.
