Guest registration for live events
We have trouble introducing the live events feature if not every attendee is known. A solution would be, that additionally to the live event option "organization wide (registration required)" potential external viewer could register for the event, similar to the "Guest" registration for a team. So we can invite internal and external users and ensure that every viewer is known with name and email.

This would assist the Live Hearings carried out by certain public sector bodies in the UK. This has a high level of ministerial backing.

This is vital how come this is not available. Like others have mentioned below this would be a critical decision to move our sessions from other third parties.
Plus what about virtual rooms? Zoom is great for that. At the moment my users have to click on separate links I generate.

Really need a seamless process from registration to attendance and followup by being able to track who has registered vs who attended. This platform has the ability to be more marketing focused by an authenticated compulsory email log in and more reliable attendee view and report. This would allow us marketers to see who has actually attended, been engaged and target follow up correspondence accordingly.

definitely need to be able to see who is attending during the event. Whether large or small groups, you do need to see that crucial people are there and that someone who shouldn't be isn't. As well as a way to kick out and block attendees that don't belong.

Something like this is sorely needed. We love using Teams live events for external broadcasts for several reasons, however, the lack of scheduling support for viewers and attendee overview for us causes a lot of extra work and uncertainty.

This would be an amazing feature for us on the marketing side and would continue making Teams the killer app it is. Getting away from needing any 3rd party webinar apps would be incredible.

"Registration, attendance and completion" for Meetings / Trainings / Events and Classrooms is becoming a compelling platform choice. There are a lot of opportunities to use Teams / Live events as a platform for credit hours for both industry requirements and classroom. Companies offering marketing events want to identify who attended and whether they completed the event.

This is important re encouraging use of Live Events vs competitive non-MS solutions such as "GoToWebinar"

Agree with previous comments that we need the ability to have single-use invitations for external guests to prevent sharing of content.

This is a key feature for us to consider to move our webinar series from another third-party application (GoToWebinar) to Live Event in Microsoft Teams.

Come on Microsoft this feature was requested in 2018. You have this capability with your own your MS Virtual Events and Zoom has had this feature for ages.

Any new details on the registration of external invitees to the MS Live Events?

It would be helpful to be able to restrict the invitation link to the specific external user it was sent to, preventing the ability to forward the invite to another user and preventing multiple people from connecting to the live event from the same link.

It is almost impossible to host a private or closed Live Event with external users, unlike Zoom or other tools...pre-registration of large audiences as it is must have feature just like it is done in standard Team meetings...

This is an essential function; we'll have to purchase another tool if it isn't made available in Teams.
