Microsoft Teams block an inbound call

Hi All,

Ever needed to Block a Telephone Number in Microsoft Teams Enterprise Voice. Here is how that can be done.

Get-CsInboundBlockedNumberPattern
New-CsInboundBlockedNumberPattern -Name "BlockMobile-01" -Enabled $True -Description "BlockMobile-01" -Pattern "^\+?41796937148$"

Be aware, that it could take up to 24 Hours until that Number is blocked.

Then the Caller will hear only a busy Signal

Get-CsInboundBlockedNumberPattern

You can Test your pattern Matching with the following Commandlet

Test-CsInboundBlockedNumberPattern -PhoneNumber +41796937148
Test-CsInboundBlockedNumberPattern -PhoneNumber 0796937148
Test-CsInboundBlockedNumberPattern -PhoneNumber 796937148

It seems that the Quicksteps in Outlook on the Web are completly independent from the Quicksteps in Outlook for Windows.

If you click on Quicksteps you come to the OWA Settings where you can configure a new Quckstep
