Unable to share EXISTING channels in Teams

Our tenant is configured to allow some users to *create* shared channels, but we're specifically looking for the functionality here to share *an existing channel* with either users or an existing Team

While allowed users can create a shared Team, they don't even see the option to share *an existing channel* as described in the two articles above.

 

We're in the GCC - can anyone point me to something telling whether this "SHARE AN EXISTING CHANNEL" option is even available to GCC tenants

 

TIA for any thoughts or suggestions!

  • Hello,
    The channel must be created as a Shared channel to be able to later share it.

      Thanks for your response... that's exactly what I discovered with testing and in an article as well. <duh!> 🙂
