How do we create a shortcut link to a private channel? (not available like normal channels)
Hi,
Not sure why it is not there, but I can confirm it. You can request a change for this here:
https://aka.ms/teamspublicfeedback
And/Or from Teams client > Help (lower left corner) > Give feedback
As a workaround you can open Team web app (https://teams.microsoft.com), open the Private channel and copy the URL from the web browser.
Isn't ridiculous how the web version has more functionality than the app? Some aspects of Teams are a real eye roller.
Agreed this should be included just like standard channels. My workaround is to use the Share to Outlook option on the message and send it to myself. When I get the email I copy the link embedded in the Go to Teams link. Even though it has "Share to Outlook" as part of the link it still works as expected.
LinusCansby Thanks. Great ideas for work round. Will feedback to Tech Team
SebRSR Just wanted to note that the workaround allows you to link the private channel itself, but not the conversation.
- Ok. Thanks
