Channel Owner Permissions
Dear all,
I have problems with the permissions between Channel Owner and Team Members.
Example: I created a MS Teams which is public for all in the company. And I created also channels which are private and you need to apply for access to this channel. Therefore in MS Teams Settings I disabled the permission for the members to delete, change, add channels, tabs and apps. This only possible for the Team Owner.
But for all channels I add also the different Channel Owner.
Now my expectation is that the channel owner have the same permissions for their own channels like the MS Teams Owner. But it was not possible for the channels owner to delete a TAB till I give in MS Teams the permission for members to delete TABs. But this is not what I want. MS Teams permissions should be seperated from channel permissions.
How can I give channel owner the permissions to do all the things with their channels without changing the permissions for whole MS Teams?
Thank you in advance,
Hakan
Hakan_Cukurluz It is correct members in a Private Channel can only add tabs if permission to create, update and remove tabs is disabled in the channel.
The documentation also mentions that only add tabs is available in private channels.

Yes for members of a channel. But what about Private Channel Owner?
You can graduate members to private channel owner but this has no effect to his permissions. I cannot configure that only private channel owner can manage tabs. And it make no sense that there is a dependency between channel permission and teams permissions. If you create a private channel and another person has the role of the private channel owner he cannot make any changes in his private channel if I don't give as team owner the permission to all member.
I hope I could now describe my problem.
