Cross chat

[pudsuk]

Afternoon all.

I have a group of Teams set up.  All set to private groups.  They are all set up within the same organisation.

Is there a way a member is able to run a Chat between two or three of the groups involving everyone in those groups?

You can use cross channel posting to get a message out to all teams you’re a member of but conversational wise between Teams, you can’t! What you can do is to create group chats with the members of those teams

@adam deltinger thanks for the reply.  So you mean they would have to create a group chat and individually put the names of each person they wish to chat to.  They can't select the private group name to pick everyone up.

No, they have to pick them one by one

An alternative is utilizing Tags, but the person starting the chat has to be a member in both Teams. If everyone in each Team has a tag assigned, you can start a group chat with those tags, and everyone will be added to the chats by the tags.

Doing a group chat is a one time thing thou, once it's used they can keep using it.

If those groups will be working together, might make sense to create private Teams with the different groups together.
