How to Close a Breakout Room on Teams (Staff)
Close breakout rooms
When you close the breakout rooms, the participants return to the main meeting.
Note: If you turned off the Automatically move people into opened rooms setting (see Turn off automatic entry to breakout rooms), participants will have the option of returning to the main meeting or leaving the meeting when the rooms are closed.
Close rooms individually
In the meeting controls, select Breakout rooms .
Hover over the room and select More options then Close room.
Close all the rooms at the same time
In the meeting controls, select Breakout rooms .
Select Close.
You'll know rooms have successfully closed when their status changes to Closed.
When everyone is back from their breakout rooms and you're ready to meet as a larger group again, select Resume.
Notes:
Breakout rooms remain open until the organizer manually closes them or unless they set a timer.
If the rooms are reopened later in the meeting, participants keep the same room assignments they had before.
