Can no longer add People to a chat and include chat history in Microsoft Teams?
Used to be able to add additional people to a chat and get option to show chat history with add person icon at top of screen. Now, when press button you only get the option to start a brand new group chat and never given option to include chat history.. this was a VERY useful feature that seems to have been removed? Not sure if this on purpose or is this a bug?
Dial Tone in Microsoft Teams Meeting
Hello Tech Community, We are currently experiencing an issue where users are hearing a dial tone in a Microsoft Teams meeting. We are currently in Islands Mode and the default chat app for Office is Skype for Business, and the users use both applications. We initially thought that the issue was due to users attempting to use call controls for Teams, therefore taking Skype into an off-hook state , causing that dial tone. However, one of our UC guys has said that this isn't in fact what is happening. When he either clicks the Teams toast or the join button from the calendar, the Teams meeting starts as usual, but Skype plays a dial tone, and he needs to exit the Skype app for the dial tone to stop. This also seems to have coincided with a recent office application update. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. Kind Regards, Alex.
Add Group Chat As A Channel
Hi all, I am wondering if there is a way to make a channel in a team that behaves the same as a group chat. I understand the advantages and disadvantages of conversations vs chats. Basically I like having conversation for work related things, the threads are good for organizations etc. At the same time I would prefer having a channel for general chit chat that behaves like a group chat (with the reply behavior of a chat and the general flow of a chat.) Yes I could just make a group chat that has the same members as my team but it is less comfortable to continuously go between the Teams tab and the Chats tab, and also inviting members to both the Group and the Chat can be annoying when there are many of them. Is there a way to do this that I missed?
