Change status in Microsoft Teams

In Microsoft Teams, your status is displayed as a colored circle next to your profile picture. You can see this status logo at all times in the upper right corner of the screen.

Of course, you can also view a person's status, shown in their profile picture next to the conversation.

Microsoft Teams automatically changes your status in certain situations, such as when you're in a meeting, during a video call. or if you are inactive for a certain amount of time. However, you can also manually change this state as you like.

First, click your profile photo in the top right corner of the Microsoft Teams interface. Then just click choose the right status from the list available.

Alternatively, you can also set the length of time you want to stay in a specific state by clicking ' Duration '.

Next, choose the state you want as well as the specific length of time you want to stay in that state.

Your status will automatically revert to ' Available ' at the end of the time (or ' Busy ' if the time interval you set ends at the exact time you are in a meeting or during a call).

You can also change your status from the Search box at the top of the screen by entering one of the following commands:

If you prefer to use keyboard shortcuts, pressing Ctrl + e will bring you to the search box. For example, to set your state to ' Do not disturb ', press Ctrl + e, then '/ dnd'.
