Sharepoint team site created from Microsoft Teams to prefix "teams"
- May 25, 2020
Not setting it as default but here's how to create it under /teams/
Create new Site under Other Options
Use the Team template and change Site Address to /teams/
Browse to the site and from the gear select to connect to O365 group
Enter group name. I created the group Internal Dev Team
Create new Team from MS Teams and select create from O365 group then select your group
Your team would be linked to this new address now. The team content will now be under /teams/ for this team. Create other similar teams.
Nabin...the convention you're describing below would be a subsite of /teams/. When Microsoft Teams creates a the companion SharePoint site collection in the /sites/ "managed path" it does this intentionally for security and content isolation.
Could you please let me know why MS intentionally did this abd what is the difference between /team and /site in security and data isolation perspectives.
Thanks.

Yes I would like to get a answer on this. I am currently reviewing this within our organization. Sites or Teams? I would like to reserve "sites" for official content and "teams" for adhoc user provisioned sites. Research from unofficial sources appears to concur. Do I have this correct?

Miller_Adminyou can set the default path for new team sites to go to tenant/teams/newsite.
if you want to control the newsite name, you can use the Azure AD Group Naming policy
