Cannot Rename a Private Channel that has been Restored
Just finding out if this is a bug. Scenario: 1. User deleted a Private Channel 2. User Restored the Private Channel 3. When User tries to rename the restored Private Channel they don't get ...
I have just replicated the behaviour. I added a private channel, deleted, restored it and now cannot rename it or remove it. I can only leave the channel.
In order for the user to have deleted the private channel, and then go ahead and restore it, they would have had to be an owner of the channel.
In doing so, they should also be able to rename the channel through the Edit Channel options. So if this user was indeed an owner, then something definitely seems weird here. I've just tested the same experience of deleting and restoring a private channel as an owner, and then renaming, and it worked just fine.
You can rename the channel in the meantime from the Teams Admin Center, but that doesn't explain the mystery of course.
