There seem to be different kinds of Microsoft Teams links. For example, when I generate a link using the Teams For Linux app, they're of the form:

https://teams.live.com/meet/55366767345647

But some invitations are more like:

Microsoft Teams meeting

Join on your computer, mobile app or room device

Click here to join the meeting

Meeting ID: 123 456 411 131 Passcode: CdWX5S

Download Teams | Join on the web

Or call in (audio only)

+1 437-123-7890,,562462542# Canada, Toronto

Phone Conference ID: 123 678 891#

Find a local number | Reset PIN

Where the link is like:

https://teams.microsoft.com/l/meetup-join/19%3ameeting_MmE2dghgjthggfgftdgk4NTEx%40thread.v2/0?context=%7b%22Tid%22%3a%2284fa96df-e750-41d3-81b1-850387a4aa42%22%2c%22Oid%22%3a%2221d05281-6ac1-49f3-b759-5gfdsgfgfgfsfh82c%22%7d

and so the question is how to join through the above link with video. Because I just get caught in a loop of logging in and starting the app without ever joining the meeting itself.

Can I enter this meeting ID into the Teams For Linux app somehow? I see no such option.

System info:

nicholas@mordor:~$ 
nicholas@mordor:~$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description:    Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
Release:    22.04
Codename:   jammy
nicholas@mordor:~$ 
nicholas@mordor:~$ chromium --version
Chromium 112.0.5615.49 snap
nicholas@mordor:~$

Can I not simply enter the meeting ID somewhere?

teams

There's no such option readily apparent.

The Linux App has been deprecated for all practical purposes. (And I wouldn't know where to enter a meeting code or a URL even if it wasn't.)

What works for me is using the linux version of Microsoft Edge to open these links.
