Scheduling Meetings in Private Channels
Hi, Can anyone confirm this this works, or indeed doesn't? I can't seem to schedule meetings into Private Channels, but can't find if this should actually work. Thanks,
- Hi sp-jmglade
Currently, you can't schedule meetings in private channels.
As stated in the article
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/MicrosoftTeams/private-channels
We're continually adding capabilities to private channels so check back for the most up-to-date information regarding apps, channel meetings, and scaling private channels for large teams
You can however do meet now's in private channels
Hope that answers your question!
Best, Chris
sp-jmglade There is a great article about this.
This is a great solution:
How to schedule a meeting in a private channel of Microsoft Teams? - Microsoft 365 Education (sergeykhrushchev.com)
Basically:
Get the e-mail from the private channel
Plan a recurrence meeting in the main channel
As participants: paste the private channel e-mail (DO NOT ENTER OTHERS!)
Remove the channel from the invite (Team-Name --> Main channel name)
Save
I see how that works - it achieves the meeting but I can't then edit the post to make it look like a tidy meeting. I'll still use this for now on occasion though - thank you! 🙂
