With just a click, users can transform your two-dimensional (2D) meeting into a 3D immersive experience. The service plan will also enable immersive spaces experiences in the Mesh app for Meta Quest VR devices. Read more about it here:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/mesh\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Microsoft Mesh | Connect like never before<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The immersive spaces service plan provides more granular management controls to enable or disable Mesh experiences for specific users or groups. As a result, the previous Mesh policy found in the M365 Apps Admin Center used to manage experiences like the Mesh app on Meta Quest VR devices will no longer be available. Access to immersive spaces experiences will instead be based on selections made with the immersive spaces service plan, as well as app permission policies configured in the Teams Admin Center, as documented in&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/en-us\/microsoftteams\/meeting-immersive-spaces\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Set up immersive spaces for Teams | Microsoft Learn<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Note: Your users must enter into a separate agreement directly with Microsoft to enable spatial audio for Mesh experiences, including immersive spaces in Teams. That agreement is presented to your users before the user\u2019s first use of Mesh. If a user does not wish to enter into that agreement, the user cannot use Mesh. For more information on the agreement presented to users see: Set up&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/en-us\/mesh\/setup\/content\/setup-m365-mesh\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Microsoft Mesh | Microsoft Learn<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>What you need to do to prepare:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you had previously restricted immersive spaces access in the Mesh app for Meta Quest VR devices via the Mesh policy found in the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/config.office.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">M365 Apps Admin Center<\/a>, you will need to switch to restricting access via the immersive spaces service plan instead.

Both the Service plan and the Teams Admin Center app settings need to be enabled for Immersive spaces to work within your organization.
