Can't add members to private channels
After creating a team and adding private channels, I can't add members to private channels consistently. Sometimes I can; sometimes I can't. Also having issues adding guests to teams.
- Jan 13, 2020Hi Andrew Silcock
Whilst the workarounds for this issue are
1.) To add via the mobile app (IoS/Android)
2.) Completely remove and re-add user to the team
It does look like a bug. I have raised it here
https://microsoftteams.uservoice.com/forums/908686-bug-reports/suggestions/39418315-bug-inconsistency-in-being-able-to-add-users-to-p
I have also raised it internally with the Microsoft engineering team. Hopefully they will verify and fix soon
Hope that answers your question
Best, Chris
Hi Cathy_McK
Thanks for raising this issue. A few questions
- Is this consistent across users?
- Is this issue occurring in the web app (teams.microsoft.com) as well as the desktop app
Look forward to hearing from you

ChrisHoardMVP I too am unable to add anyone whatsoever in Microsoft Teams. I can add people with the free version but in the regular version when I go to a channel or team, the option to "add" is shaded out. I've included an attachment.
I have tried on the app in Win 10, my ipad and iphone and on the web. It's not working for me at all.
