Disable all options besides Private for Teams creation

Copper Contributor

Has anyone found a way to disable the ability to make public Teams upon creation of a Team?  I do not want to use sensitivity labels.  We don't want there to even be the option of Public unless it is greyed out.

 

Thank you in advance.

I'm afraid the only way to achieve this is by means of sensitivity labels

I am correcting myself here. Even though @Juan Carlos González Martín is correct there are other alternatives!

 

New-Team (MicrosoftTeamsPowerShell) | Microsoft Docs let's you provision a new team with the set visibility.

 

New-CsTeamTemplate (MicrosoftTeamsPowerShell) | Microsoft Docs

Lets you provision a team template with the set visibility.

 

You can also use Graph, create groups with visibility "private" and then convert to a team

If this is a problem though perhaps you should consider not allowing all to create teams
