How to add multiple/all students as attendees to a Teams Meeting invite.

Need to add multiple students or all students on a module to a Teams Meeting? You cannot currently use the ‘Add entire class’ function to invite all students to a Teams Meeting. This guidance: Inviting multiple or all students on an Ultra Course to a Teams Meeting explains how you can download a list of student email addresses from RISIS and paste into a Teams Meeting invite.
