Gif (Giphy) search restricted?
Hi JMcG26 ,
You have pretty much done what you can with regards to settings around Giphys.
Not that this answers your question but I like this article as it gives you a better understanding with regards to ratings: https://tomtalks.blog/2019/02/blocking-and-filtering-giphys-in-microsoft-teams-why-do-it-spoil-all-the-fun/
So back to your actual question, I would imagine and this is just my opinion, is that Microsoft will have done some initial filtering of the Giphys that you can search for by way of Teams.
What you should be able to do however, albeit a bit of a long winded method for some poop related Giphys lol. You could copy and paste from Giphy.com into a chat.
I would like to think however that Teams will give you enough to get on with, albeit it might not appreciate you asking it to process the word poop 🙂
ThanksHenry

Ha yes sorry that was the most appropriate example I could think of that pulled G and PG gifs, and yes thank you I have read that article researching this issue.
We have a pretty liberal culture at my company and my boss wanted to know why he couldn't get results for a**hole lol
