Moodle users with Microsoft 365 accounts can create Teams meetings from within Moodle for free. Teams meetings can be created using the TinyMCE Editor in Calendar, Assignments, Forum posts or wherever else TinyMCE Editor is available. Once the plugin is installed, educators can create an audio or video meeting from Moodle.

1. When editing description using the TinyMCE Editor, click on the Microsoft Teams icon

2. Then select Create meeting link (you will need to sign into your Microsoft Teams account the first time)

3. Enter a meeting title, date, and time, then click Create. The link will show in the field “Your meeting URL”.

4. Mark “Open in a new window” if you want the meeting to open in a new tab and click “Add link”.

Now the meeting link will appear for students in the description of Calendar events, Assignments, Forums posts, or wherever else in Moodle that uses TinyMCE Editor.
