Allow Teams Owners to Feed Delete Posts
Hello! Can we get a feature that allows group owners to delete spammy or inappropriate messages from a larger Teams Channel? Slack is great and has this feature, but I have been frustrated not being able to curate and fully serve as an admin with full auditing control of this larger Teams Channel (2,000 employees). Please add this feature to help us best manage our channels!

Andrea_Medina Hello, this is also possible with Teams policies.
-AllowOwnerDeleteMessageDetermines whether owners are allowed to delete all the messages in their team. Set this to TRUE to allow. Set this to FALSE to prohibit.

ChristianBergstrom There is no -AllowOwnerDeleteMessage parameter for the Set-CsTeamsMessagingPolicy cmdlet. Do you have an alternative method?
Just to add to the above - Team owners can delete messages in all channels by default, you shouldnt need to modify the policy for this. This does not apply to admins however - if you want an admin to be able to delete messages, add them as Onwer of the team first.
VasilMichev Hey Vasil, surely you still need to toggle on the setting in the policy "Owners can delete sent messages" first. This cannot be the default value (as it would create chaos in Teams with multiple owners).
