Our organization has virtual meetings to teach students about materials prior to coming for in-person training. During these meetings, our instructors launch polls in Teams. Prior to developing our LMS, we created teams meetings and the instructors would access them prior to the course to populate their polls.

Is the meeting ID and information the same for all events in a session? Could I create an event in the session prior to the actual course so they could set up the content prior to the session? Or will they need to utilize the Instructor log-in time before the course to execute this?

Additionally, is there a way to forcibly mute and shut off student cameras for these sessions prior to them joining the course?

If you are pulling in the meetings via the Microsoft Teams integration on the events, I believe it will create a new meeting ID for every event.  The only way you would get the same meeting ID on multiple events would be to utilize the “Custom Tool” option and then insert the URL to the meeting ID you would have to create in Teams externally first.  I think if you’re wanting them to be able to log in early to the same meeting and set some things up, I would leverage the option to allow the instructor to join before the audience.

I believe forcibly muting and shutting off cameras would be utilizing an “Event” set-up rather than a “Meeting” set up.
