    dmiranda Hey! I've read about this "workaround" but have never tried it myself "you can make them show up (in Teams) by manually creating a channel in Teams with the EXACT same name". Let me know if it works!

vinodkarne The folder isn't invisible, you just need to navigate back to it as you start in a channel folder. Within Teams use the breadcrumb to go to Documents and you will see all the SharePoint folders.
