Microsoft Teams Android device management in the Teams admin center will retire by August 31, 2026. Devices must connect to the Teams Rooms Pro Management portal via IoT Hub for continued management. Organizations should verify device connectivity and complete migration steps before the deadline to avoid losing management capabilities.
We identified that one or more Microsoft Teams Android devices in your organization are not connected to the Teams Rooms Pro Management portal (PMP) through IoT Hub. Devices that are not connected through IoT Hub cannot be managed through the Teams Rooms Pro Management portal.
This communication is related to the retirement of Teams Android device management in the Teams admin center (TAC). After this retirement, PMP will be the supported management experience for Teams Android devices. We previously announced this retirement in MC1227622.
