Shared Channels Demo
Shared Channels are perhaps the biggest change to Teams chat and channels since the product launched 5 years ago. I'm creating a video series to break down it's features, here's the first episode that includes a full hand on demo from the new Public Preview release.

StevenC365 - Great insight Steven and really appreciated. Have been waiting for this now for a while as it was very disjointed having the teams internally and externally in a separate team setup only to restrict other channel access. So my question here is - is this currently live to everybody now? as I have just tried to create a channel with this setup and within the Privacy setting, it does not give me me the option of Shared (still just standard and private). Maybe I am missing something or need to active a setting within the teams admin portal. It would be great to get some direction on this. Cheers
DesignPro It's still a public preview feature, you would need to enable your accounts for public preview then the option should exist to create a shared channel.

Hi StevenC365, excellent video, thanks much for putting it together. I have a question about when you Invite a whole Team from another organisation: as the Hosting organisation can I see who (which individuals) are in that Team at any point in time?
MichaelKroon yes, if you access the channel members list you can click on the count of member in each member Team, then you get a view that will show you the current member from the remote Team.
