Add Private Channel to Meeting
I'm creating a meeting within Teams where I would like to "Add Channel" and the channel I would like to add is a private channel.
I'm able to navigate through all my public channels, although I'm unable to locate any of my private channels.
How do I add my new meeting to a private channel?
- You can’t schedule meetings in a private channel!
You ca. Only do a meet now!

Yes another poorly executed product by MS, so close but always missing a critical piece that makes it a pain... I hope they fix this oversight soon.
- There is a workaround for this at the moment. See here

However, natively, we are going to have to wait a bit longer

Unfortunately that work around makes your private channel vulnerable to others joining, as anyone in your org can get in via the link generated if they are provided it.
- Adam's right. Solution here is to vote on the open voice

More votes pushes it up the agenda for the product and engineering team
Hope this answers your question!
