How does private channel 'member to owner' promotion happen when last owner leaves org?
- Sep 14, 2020
DazzaR Hi, well the official docs says that this is how it works. But from my understanding it doesn't (auto-promotion) and is a known bug. At least I haven't heard anything new so will gladly receive an update on it from anyone that possibly knows more about it.
Anyway, this can be done manually using PowerShell (get the members and then promote one).

ChristianBergstrom - thanks, that might explain why I couldn't get auto-promotion to work in my tests in my dev tenant. Have you seen a post or article elsewhere where Microsoft acknowledge it's a bug?

DazzaR I'm afraid not. This is the closest I could find when doing a search, see comment below https://stackoverflow.com/questions/61778786/why-is-my-microsoft-teams-channel-ownerless
