Teams Migration for New Private Channels Stalls
Microsoft began an automated background process to move Teams private channels to a new infrastructure earlier this year. Tenants should check the state of the migration as reported by the Get-TenantPrivateChannelMigrationStatus cmdlet because it is possible that the migration is stalled and waiting for administrator intervention. In most cases, the problem is because of ownerless channels, but archived teams with private channels also stop the migration. https://office365itpros.com/2026/05/11/private-channel-migration-stalls/
Anything inside Teams for people management you use and can recommend?
We currently have to use one tool for goals, another for feedback, a spreadsheet for review tracking, Teams for 1:1s, and then some shared doc for engagement notes. Leadership asked me if theres anything that does all of this inside Teams so they dont have to keep jumping around. We're a mid-size company (around 200 people) fully on Microsoft 365. Anyone found a good all-in-one solution that actually works inside Teams?How to use the new Chats & Channels experience in Teams

Graph API: summary field ignored for Adaptive Card message notifications/preview
Hello, Problem Summary When sending Adaptive Cards via Microsoft Graph API to Teams chats, the `summary` field in the message payload is completely ignored. This results in unhelpful generic notifications like "Card" or "Sent an attachment" instead of meaningful preview text. Environment - **API**: Microsoft Graph API v1.0 - **Endpoint**: `POST /chats/{chat-id}/messages` - **Platform**: Microsoft Teams (Desktop, Web, Mobile) - **Adaptive Card Version**: 1.5 Expected Behavior According to the https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/resources/chatmessage?view=graph-rest-1.0, the `summary` property should be used for: > "Summary text of the message that could be used for push notifications and summary views or fall back views" When sending a message with `summary: "🚨 Big Alert: This is a real issue"`, I expect: - ✅ Teams notification toast displays: "🚨 Big Alert: This is a real issue" - ✅ Chat list preview shows: "🚨 Big Alert: This is a real issue" - ✅ Activity feed shows: "🚨 Big Alert: This is a real issue" Actual Behavior The `summary` field has **no effect** on notifications or previews: - ❌ Notification shows generic text: "Card" or "Sent an attachment" - ❌ Chat list preview shows generic text or first TextBlock from card - ❌ Activity feed shows generic text - ❌ The `summary` field appears to be completely ignored Minimal Reproduction Request Payload ```json POST https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/chats/{chat-id}/messages Content-Type: application/json Authorization: Bearer {token} { "body": { "contentType": "html", "content": "<attachment id=\"card001\"></attachment>" }, "attachments": [ { "id": "card001", "contentType": "application/vnd.microsoft.card.adaptive", "content": { "type": "AdaptiveCard", "$schema": "http://adaptivecards.io/schemas/adaptive-card.json", "version": "1.5", "body": [ { "type": "TextBlock", "text": "Critical Alert", "weight": "bolder", "size": "large", "color": "attention" }, { "type": "TextBlock", "text": "Database connection has failed. Please investigate immediately.", "wrap": true } ], "actions": [ { "type": "Action.OpenUrl", "title": "View Details", "url": "https://example.com/alerts/12345" } ] } } ], "summary": "🚨 Big Alert: This is a real issue" } ``` Steps to Reproduce Create a test chat in Microsoft Teams Obtain OAuth2 token with `Chat.ReadWrite` scope Send the above payload via Graph API Observe notification/preview in Teams client **Result**: The `summary` field is ignored, notification shows generic text. Business Impact This limitation severely impacts user experience for: - **Alert/incident notifications** - Users can't identify urgency without opening the chat - **High-volume scenarios** - Users can't triage messages efficiently - **Time-sensitive operations** - Critical alerts look identical to routine messages Our team manages 200+ incident notifications daily via Adaptive Cards. Without meaningful previews, users must open every notification to assess priority, defeating the purpose of notifications. Workarounds Attempted ❌ **Setting `summary` at message level** - Ignored when attachments present ❌ **Adding preview text in `body.content`** - Overwritten by attachment ❌ **Using different `contentType` values** - No improvement ❌ **Including fallback text in Adaptive Card** - Not displayed in preview ✅ **Only working solution**: Send plain text message first, then card separately (terrible UX) Questions **Is this a bug or by design?** If by design, why does the documentation describe `summary` as useful for notifications? **Is there an alternative mechanism** to control preview text for Adaptive Card messages? **Is this being tracked internally?** This seems like a fundamental limitation for bot developers. Full Reproduction Package I've created a complete reproduction package with test scripts and detailed documentation: - Test payload JSON - Bash/PowerShell test scripts - Step-by-step reproduction guide Can share via GitHub gist if helpful for the team to investigate. Request Please either: **Fix the implementation** to honor the `summary` field for Adaptive Card messages, OR **Provide an alternative mechanism** to control notification/preview text, OR **Update the documentation** to clarify that `summary` is not supported for Adaptive Cards This is blocking our production alert system deployment. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated! ---How are you running 1:1 meetings inside Teams without it turning into a mess?
Right now were using a shared OneNote for agendas and action items but honestly nobody updates it and half the time the meeting turns into a random chat with no structure. I tried using Planner tasks as a workaround but thats clunky because theres no real connection between the task and the meeting itself. Has anyone found a good way to keep 1:1 agendas, notes, and follow ups all in one place inside Teams? We have about 40 people so it needs to scale a bit.Microsoft Planner – Audit trails for Cards (Activity)
Hi folks, Could we please have an activity feed for each card to log who did what? Having the ability to know who changed the dates, the description, etc., would help increase the transparency and the integrity of the information contained in it. We might want to mimic what is currently done on Trello. For example: Dimitri Pletschette set this card to be due Jun 6 at 11:50 AM a few seconds ago Dimitri Pletschette added this card to To Do 5 minutes ago Feel free to jump into the conversation below.

Persistent Bluetooth Headset Issues in Microsoft Teams
Many users, including myself, have encountered persistent issues using Bluetooth headsets with Microsoft Teams, particularly in the desktop app. Common problems include: Audio Output Problems: Low audio quality or no audio at all. Microphone Issues: The microphone does not function consistently or at all. Connection Drops: Devices disconnect unexpectedly during or after breakout sessions. Specific Trigger Points: These issues are often limited to Teams and do not occur in other applications. Notable Observations: Disabling the "Handsfree Telephony" service on the headset in Windows resolves many of these problems but renders the headset as a simple audio output device, necessitating an external microphone. The issues seem prevalent across various brands (e.g., Jabra, Poly Voyager, Sony, Bose) These issues are frustrating, especially since they are less frequent in other apps like Zoom or on the Teams web app. It seems related to how Teams interacts with Bluetooth profiles (A2DP vs. HFP) and prioritizes them during meetings. Action for the Community: To help Microsoft prioritize this issue, I’ve submitted detailed feedback on the Microsoft Teams Feedback Portal. If you’re experiencing similar problems, I encourage you to upvote and comment on the feedback to bring more visibility to this matter. https://feedbackportal.microsoft.com/feedback/idea/c460a39e-afb7-ef11-95f6-0022484d7a88
The Chat Notification Badge That Won't Die
I know there's another thread on this, but literally none of those solutions worked, so I'm a starting a new thread. My chat notification won't go away. All of my chats are read. Here's everything I've done to fix this already (note- It's a corporate computer so I can't mess with the anti-virus): Signed out of the app every (desktop, web, phone) Restarted my computer Cleared the cache data from all 13 different locations Changed the setting to close the app when I shut down Closed it in the Task Manager Turned off all of my notifications Clicked on every chat I've received over the last week The only thing that seemed to maybe be the culprit was a very large company meeting and I was the last to leave. There was a lot of chat in that meeting, though I didn't participate in any of it. The reason I think this was when I went to log into to Teams from my browser, as I started to type "Microsoft Teams" I noticed in the suggested sites that there was a chat message from that meeting. So obviously I've left the meeting. I've deleted that chat. I've even left the teams channel that hosts those meetings. For what it's worth, I don't have any notifications on the phone app (android). It's just on the desktop and the web. Please, for the love of god, help. It's slowly driving me insane and I don't have the mental capacity to deal with anything else that makes me insane during quarantine. 🙂 *jk- I'm fine. It's a joke*
