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.
- Jan 13, 2020Hi 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

This issue is still unresolved...

Issue still exists.
Errors "Something went wrong" & "Please try again later". No actual meaningful error response to resolve this.

DevvzjeSame issue here, the member can be found but when adding it says 'Something went wrong'. Adding in the mobile app works.

OMG I found the workaround to this a few years ago (see beginning of thread) and I can't believe that the workaround (adding to the mobile app) is still being used. I'll probably flag this to the engineering team as I am pretty shocked that this is still happening! 😄
