Hi,
I would like the auto-fill mark attendance for teams integration (auto-populated teams meeting link for ILC) to match participants from the report in absorb to Teams based on emails instead of names, as names can differ if they are using nicknames or something other than their name in teams than what is stated in LMS. The email is more consistent.
I think this is even more important for those using Zoom as their client as Zoom is easier to change the name when joining a meeting than in teams.
Thank you for your suggestion! After reviewing your idea, we’re excited to share that it aligns well with our strategic goals and has been earmarked for future implementation. We believe this feature could significantly enhance attendance tracking for virtual venues, and we are working to prioritize it within our roadmap.
While we don’t have an immediate timeline to share, we will keep you updated as we progress toward development. Your input plays a crucial role in shaping our priorities, and we truly appreciate your engagement with our product. Please continue sharing your ideas, as they are vital to the growth of our platform.
In the meantime, you can utilize the autofill feature. When autofill is used, Absorb will check for enrolled users whose email address matches the email address of the attendees.
If no match is found by email address, we will search for a screen name in the virtual meeting provider that matches the full name (first name + last name) of the enrolled users.
Please refer to this link for more information.

We need this for the Microsoft Teams Integration.
