# Joining a Teams Meeting

There are a number of ways to join a Teams Meetings such as from a calendar, using a link or in a channel.

## Join by link

Select **Join Microsoft Teams Meeting** in your meeting invite to be taken to a page where you can choose to either join on the web or download the desktop app. If you already have the Teams app, the meeting will open there automatically.

If a meeting takes place in a channel, you’ll see an invitation to join, relevant content, and who’s in the meeting right in the channel. Just select **Join**.

You can login to Glow, open Teams and navigate to the Team where you know the meeting is taking place. You will see a** Join** button when a meeting is active.

When joining a meeting you may be held in a lobby until admitted by the meeting organiser.
