The Caller ID policy in the Teams admin center controls what phone number or name is presented to the recipient of outbound calls.

The 'Screen sharing mode' setting within Teams meeting policies controls who can share their screen and with whom during meetings.

By default, Teams meeting recordings are saved to the organizer's OneDrive for Business after the new recording storage model rollout.
