Forms in a Private Channel in Teams
When do you think the Forms app will be supported in a private channel as a tab?
- Hi srickman
They are currently actively working on it per article
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/MicrosoftTeams/private-channels
Currently, private channels support connectors and tabs (except Stream, Planner, and Forms). We're working on full apps support for private channels, including messaging extensions and bots.
So this is currently in the works. But no confirmed timescale as of yet.
Hope that answers your question!
Best, Chris
- have you tried to just add the form url to a website tab. It works fairly similar to having the form tab.
Tried it and seems to work well for me ChrisWebbTech
thanks, it really helped me a lot.
ChrisWebbTech Best answer, works perfectly! Thank you!

Best, ChrisChrisHoardMVP Do you know if MS is making any progress with this? Thanks! Angela
ChrisHoardMVP is there an update to having Forms available in a Private channel
- Thanks for the link to a more recent article. I had researched and found something back in November about it not being supported. I was just curious on a time frame. Thank you.
13 Months later and still "working on full apps support for private channels". That's very disappointing.
- After 1 year and a half, is a no-update a sort of "reply"?

There is a Uservoice item on this but it doesn't have many votes. The features team prioritizes its workload partially based on user feedback, so it's worth voting on https://microsoftteams.uservoice.com/forums/555103-public/suggestions/40254460-apps-in-private-channels.Hello and thanks for your reply!
