If you have a scenario where you need to protect company information, you can restrict the ability for Microsoft Dynamics 365 Remote Assist users on HoloLens from:

  • Initiating calls

  • Receiving incoming calls outside of a meeting

  • Searching for contacts and accessing contacts

When you restrict calling for Dynamics 365 Remote Assist users, they can still:

  • Join a meeting

  • Receive a request to join a meeting that's already in progress

With this combination of restrictions and abilities, your company data stays safe and Dynamics 365 Remote Assist users can continue to join meetings to troubleshoot issues with colleagues on an ad-hoc basis.

Note

You can't restrict calling and the ability to search and access contacts for the Dynamics 365 Remote Assist mobile app, but you can set up one-time calls.

Restrict calling

To restrict calling, first you create a new Microsoft Teams policy, and then you assign that policy to the appropriate users.

    Once the policy takes effect, users will be able to join meetings or receive notifications for meetings already in progress but they won't be able to initiate calls or receive calls outside of a meeting. They also won't be able to search for contacts or access the contacts list.

    Note

    It can take a few hours for the policy changes to go into effect.
