Changing Channel from private
Hi, so after searching I cannot find the answer to this. I've created a team that will have channels in it representing different projects. I've made one channel private so that I can choose which...
- You can transfer any collaborated documents from one library to another, easily enough. But AFAIK you cannot transfer text chats.
If you REALLY need to retain the chat, the admin can download all Team chats in a CSV that you could cut down to just include chat from this channel and share it as an Excel file. Not quite as usable but at least the info and discussion isn't lost.
Alternatively, screenshot the messages you need to retain, or somehow look at retaining the channel but locking it to further discussion.
I am experiencing the same. Can this be changed on the back end somehow? Very frustrating!
I can "kind of" get the changing from a public channel to private.. that may cause a lot of negative implications. But if I have it private for testing and then decide to implement, I should be able to switch to public without having to recreate the whole channel losing the history.
I really do not see much harm in that since it can have rules like "more than 2 users will need to promote to public to take effect which will time out in 30 min" or something like that. 🙂
