Guest Invitation Process Flow

1. A Teams Owner adds a guest to a team.
2. The guest receives a welcome email from the Team Owner. When sending the Owner has the opportunity to include a personalized message to the guest.
3. The guest accepts the invitation.
   1. Guests with a work or school account in Microsoft can accept the invitation and authenticate directly.
   2. Other users are emailed a one-time pass code to validate their identity. If they don't have a Microsoft account associated with their email, they'll be prompted to create one for free.
4. After accepting the invitation, the guest can participate in teams and channels, receive and respond to channel messages, access files in channels, participate in chats, join meetings, collaborate on documents, and more.
