Teams Meetings: Sharing a Whiteboard

Summary

You can share a new or existing whiteboard with all participants in a Teams meeting. That same whiteboard is available across all devices. 

You can also choose an existing whiteboard to share in a Teams meeting. This makes it easy to prepare a whiteboard ahead of time or continue working on a project outside of Teams.
