With Teams Rooms on Windows update 4.19 coming in November, we are introducing a new and simplified way to setup Teams Room on Windows. During the first boot experience, the user will be presented with an option to enter a one-time passcode (OTP) to automatically fetch the resource account credentials and sign into Teams Rooms. The users will need a pro license to utilize this feature and provision the OTPs on the Teams Rooms Pro Management Portal.

[When this will happen:]
Standard Release: We will begin rolling out early November and expect to complete by late November.
[How this will affect your organization:]
If you are purchasing Teams Rooms on Windows devices shipped with app version 4.19 or higher, you will have the option to setup the device with a one-time passcode feature. To do this, you will need a pro license to provision the OTPs on the Teams Rooms Pro Management Portal against the Resource account for the room.
[What you need to do to prepare:]
There is no action needed to prepare for this change. You may want to notify your users about this change and update any relevant documentation as appropriate.
