How to: Opt In or Out of a Call Queue in Teams

Summary

If you are part of a departmental call queue within Teams, like the Service Desk help line (x4357), you may opt in or out of the call queue at your convenience. Opting into the call queue allows you to receive calls for that queue's extension. Opting out of the call queue stops that queues calls from coming into your Teams account. Please follow the steps below to opt in or out of a call queue.
