Give and take control of shared content

Give control

If you want another meeting participant to change a file, help you present, or demonstrate something, you can give control to that person. You will both be in control of the sharing, and you can take back control anytime.
Note: When you’re sharing an app, only give control to people you trust. People you give control to may send commands that could affect your system or other apps.
  1. On the sharing toolbar, select Give control.
  2. Select the name of the person you want to give control to.
    Teams sends a notification to that person to let them know you’re sharing control. While you’re sharing control, they can make selections, edits, and other modifications to the shared screen.
  3. To take control back, select Take back control.

Take control 

To take control while another person is sharing, select Request control. The person sharing can then approve or deny your request.
While you have control, you can make selections, edits, and other modifications to the shared screen.
When you’re done, select Release control to stop sharing control.
