MS Teams not updating to reflect what is in Sharepoint
Hello, I am in process of reorganizing my Teams channels - which requires files and folders to be moved around. I have completed this activity in Sharepoint and have synced back to Teams...or at...
- This has been a longstanding issue. Microsoft has a very recent fix but it may not have been rolled out to your tenant yet, in which case your channels are unsynchronized with their folders. https://office365itpros.com/2021/09/02/microsoft-finally-fixes-teams-channel-rename/amp/
Unless something has changed in Teams design, this reorganisation only works by renaming Teams channels. Moving/renaming channel folders in SP just breaks the relationship with Teams.
- Thanks for your feedback...this is discouraging to hear, since I feel this should be a pretty straightforward ask of the program. I feel like I've seen this sync occur before in other Teams setups; is there some organizational setting that could be different for this particular setup?

MikeWWW Appreciate the article! That puts the proverbial pin on things, in my eyes. As far as the work already done, I'll have to get creative and do some fixes. Thankfully, none of my files appear to be lost since they still show in Sharepoint, but now my team and I will have the collective burden of extra clicks into Sharepoint if a desired file doesn't appear to be present in the Teams app...thank you again for your feedback
