How do I mute notifications during a meeting in Teams?

There are several ways that you can mute notifications while you're attending a meeting in Teams:

Enable Do-not Disturb

When you are in a meeting, changing your status to Do-Not-Disturb is one of the fastest ways to disable chat notifications. In doing so, you will still be able to attend meetings and use the chat but will no longer receive notifications for each message or mention.

1. Click on your profile picture
   
2. Click on your current status and select Do not disturb.
   
   

Make sure to reset your status once your meeting is finished.
