Scheduling Meetings in Private Channels
- Hi sp-jmglade
Currently, you can't schedule meetings in private channels.
As stated in the article
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/MicrosoftTeams/private-channels
We're continually adding capabilities to private channels so check back for the most up-to-date information regarding apps, channel meetings, and scaling private channels for large teams
You can however do meet now's in private channels
Hope that answers your question!
Best, Chris

ChrisHoardMVP I have noticed that the meeting schedule is now available in Private Channels which is new, but when you come to use it unfortunately it errors...any updates/advice. Thanks
Its now under review here's the new feedback link
add a support to host a meeting in a Private Channel · Community (microsoft.com)
This thread will give you some good workarounds including ad-hoc and email but we all need to see a native solution. This has gone on way too long.
Best, Chris
Sarahcampion Unfortunately when you use the Schedule Meeting from inside a Private channel that Channel is still not able to be added. It is a bit deceiving and i did get excited when i saw that.
NaguiBihelek Sarahcampion Ditto. The function exists -- I can select Schedule a Meeting -- but then nothing appears in the 'Add channel' entry for the New Meeting pop-up. When i Schedule a Meeting in a public channel, the channel's name is auto-populated in the 'Add channel' entry for the New Meeting. Seems MS still has a bug or two to remove to make this (that is, scheduling a meeting in a private channel) truly do-able.
@NaguiBihelek @Sarahcampion An update -- today I wanted to schedule a meeting in a private channel... and the option to do so in Teams is gone. Now I can only start a meeting immediately, vice schedule one in the future. @Christopher Hoard, can you provide any insights into what's happening here? Thanks!
