Can't add members to private channels
After creating a team and adding private channels, I can't add members to private channels consistently. Sometimes I can; sometimes I can't. Also having issues adding guests to teams.
- Hi Andrew Silcock
Whilst the workarounds for this issue are
1.) To add via the mobile app (IoS/Android)
2.) Completely remove and re-add user to the team
It does look like a bug. I have raised it here
https://microsoftteams.uservoice.com/forums/908686-bug-reports/suggestions/39418315-bug-inconsistency-in-being-able-to-add-users-to-p
I have also raised it internally with the Microsoft engineering team. Hopefully they will verify and fix soon
Hope that answers your question
Best, Chris
As of now, I am still experiencing the same issue. Can't add members into channels. The feature does not show in drop down menu. Happened once before and it magically reappeared after few days. Seems to be a recurring bug.
Really need to get this function up. Arrgh...
As of Nov. 4. 2020, this problem still exists. We can add members via Android app, but can't add members via web nor desktop interface.
This bug just had it's 1st birthday. Hooray!
