Get Team's name using Channel email address
I have a channel email address and want to find out which Team it's under.

There's no direct way to get this information, unless you've manually assigned this address to an object inside your tenant. Reason being, those addresses are handled in a "shadow" tenant that we have no visibility into.
What you can do is enumerate all Teams/channels and list any configured addresses, then filter the list. Here's a sample script: https://www.michev.info/Blog/Post/2676/reporting-on-any-email-addresses-configured-for-teams-and-channels-via-the-graph-api

VasilMichev Thanks! I'll check that blog.
- Victor_IvanidzeBronze ContributorThere exists an utility that handles the email addresses of Teams channels:

Jenny8675 , yes i have the Channel email address but i want to find out where that channel is; under which Team name. Do you know how and where to check?

I'm not sure how many Teams and channels you have but I know that if you go into Team Admin Center-Manage Teams-click Team name-click channel-click the email icon-it will show you the numeric email you may be seeing, assuming you're only seeing the <xxxxxx@xxxx.teams.ms> I know that method is tedious though 😞
