Different teams to use the same channel's files
I am very new to using teams and SharePoint and am look for some instruction on how I can create different teams but allow them to use a shared folder. I'd like to set up a basic example to help ...
- Sure!
In SharePoint create a document library named Media in any site in SharePoint, preferably in any of the team sites belonging to any of the teams you mentioned.
Grant permissions to both teams. If you created a library in any of the above team sites those users already have access so just grant permissions to the other team!
Create library and add permissions:

Add this library as a library tab in both teams.

Both teams now have access to this common library!
This library can be synced offline just as any other library

I am still confused. My screen is not showing what you sent me.
I do not see anything that says "create document library". The closest I see is "create document center". I also do not see how I can create the library in a team site. I am in the SharePoint admin center, is this where I need to be?
- Go to the team, go to files tab! From there click “open in SharePoint” now follow the guide
Thank you for helping me with this.
I am still not seeing what the guide is giving me.
I am attaching what the options for me are when I click on "new" just to show you I am not going crazy.
- Okay! Up in the right upper corner, click the cogwheel- site contents.
Here click new
