Guest permission to a single channel?
As you say there is no way to add them to a private channel and don’t see the channels that aren’t private.
You can invite them to the Sharepointsite outside of the Office 365 group and have them access files, or you have to rebuild, create a new team where all channels are private (with the content that shouldn’t be accessible. Except from the private channel they should be member of
Hi Adam.
How would I add guests in and make it so they can';t have access to all files in a Teams site?
I tried clicking add member on the Teams Outlook group and adding the guest in.
But the guest could still see and access all files in the Teams. Is there a better way to make it so they need to at a bare minimum request access to view files, assuming they have to see them? (no quick way around this)
I just want them to say request acces/ give them access to some files in one Teams channel but not have access to open everything else
- You can invite external users only to the SharePoint Side of the Team and take advantage of SharePoint security model...but remember, changing the way how Teams files are accessed by users can end breaking how the Team works
- Yeah you can’t add them to the group cause then they will be guest users and can access all workloads including Teams!
You need to share the site or files/folders to them as an external user..see here:

Thank you for replies 🙂
Do you know what the differences are between:
- sharing via right click folder and clicking share
- Clicking manage access on folder and then adding guest via direct access?
Please see pics' below. I am unsure if theres any difference or if both do the same thing/pros cons
