No badge on Teams icon
thespike Is there anything in your activity list (as it also doesn't have anything showing either)?
Could you have tuned notifications too far down, so you aren't getting what you want. A new message wouldn't normally create a notification unless you selected channel notifications and set it to notify you on every message.
So in the screenshot, there was a new channel chat and I'd not commented on it.
That sounds like the correct default behaviour. If you want to b notified for every new message you can set this either on a per-channel basis or globally for all channels.
Per Channel
From the ... next to the channel name choose Channel Notifications and All Activity
Globally
From settings ... notifications ... Teams and Channels select a custom config. Set Shown and Pinned, All New Posts to Banner and feed.
You will then get a notification and entry in your activity stream for every message in your channels.
StevenC365 And that's how I have everything set, but still no notifications. Here is the channel that had the notification in the original post:
and global settings:
I've changed the global setting to All Activity to see if that makes a difference, and it doesn't. Nothing I seem to set gives me a badge on the Teams icon when there's an unread chat.
I'm pretty sure you are meant to get a badge on that icon when there are unread channels.
thespike No, you will get a badge on the activity feed to show there is a new notification, and that will take you to the new conversation.
