Changing Channel from private
Hi, so after searching I cannot find the answer to this. I've created a team that will have channels in it representing different projects. I've made one channel private so that I can choose which...
- Apr 11, 2020You can transfer any collaborated documents from one library to another, easily enough. But AFAIK you cannot transfer text chats.
If you REALLY need to retain the chat, the admin can download all Team chats in a CSV that you could cut down to just include chat from this channel and share it as an Excel file. Not quite as usable but at least the info and discussion isn't lost.
Alternatively, screenshot the messages you need to retain, or somehow look at retaining the channel but locking it to further discussion.

There is still no known way, CaseyMcD. Until now there is no way. The only way is to delete the channel.

One reason I have for wanting to change my private channel to public is because there is functionality iI can't have in the private channel. e.g. I can't have Forms or Tasks. I can have connectors but those are connectors to Forms in the main Team in which case it is no longer private.
When will Microsoft allow these types of apps to be used within a private channel?
thanks
