Scheduling Meetings in Private Channels
- Hi sp-jmglade
Currently, you can't schedule meetings in private channels.
As stated in the article
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/MicrosoftTeams/private-channels
We're continually adding capabilities to private channels so check back for the most up-to-date information regarding apps, channel meetings, and scaling private channels for large teams
You can however do meet now's in private channels
Hope that answers your question!
Best, Chris
Hi, im a fellow TEAMs user. This is what worked for me and my organization:
You can right click the private channel and choose "Get email address". the email address of your private channel will appear and click Copy button. After that, go to teams calendar in the right side of the Teams app and schedule meeting as usual. Paste the email address into the "required attendees" field. After sending, this meeting will now appear in that private channel's posts, in your teams calendar and in your outlook calendar. I hope this helps. 🙂
Thank you ChinCharmin for this. This is definitely helpful (and works too!) but since we're dealing with professors whose technology skills are less than stellar it would be nice for Microsoft to add this functionality to the Private channels by default.
