SharePoint site of private channel in Teams is not displayed SharePoint admin center
KatyaraGreat question, As the structure of the private channel, is being part of the main Team sites which is also called parent site, for example, if your Teams sites URL is tenant.sharepoint.com/sites/parent the child site URL will be the same tenant.sharepoint.com/sites/parent-privatechannel so by design you are not able to find that in the Sharepoint admin center and nor you can make it part of the hub site as it is already child to a parent.
you can only associate the parent site to a hub site.
hope that answers your question...
miloszlutnik I don't see it either so I don't think it's anything you are doing wrong. When I did see it (for a few weeks several months ago) they just showed up in the Active sites list. This is where I would expect to see them. We are a GCC tenant, so it's possible those in commercial are seeing it?

We are business users with a commercial cloud version of M365 and we still don't see subsites on active sites, so the problem isn't here.miloszlutnikyep upon checking back today I also can't see any of the private channels sites "Child sites" in my Tenant though I was able to until last week, so maybe they have to hold it back.
so might need to wait and see if there is any updates on the roadmap for it, besides here is the link and some good information about private channel what you can do and what can't.

The private channel as well as Shared Channel which created a hidden SharePoint site cause a lots of the issues. The SharePoint admin center on cloud can't see all the SharePoint sites. You really can't control the external access switch. This is a defect design or called "by Design" 🙂
