Hi,
Can anyone confirm this this works, or indeed doesn't? I can't seem to schedule meetings into Private Channels, but can't find if this should actually work.
Thanks,

Thanks @ChrisHoardMVP
I too would like to see this feature added along with the ability to record in Private channel meetings or even self meetings like you can do in other conferencing apps like Zoom.

Just to lend my support this would be very useful in educational settings.
Thanks in advance

@sp-jmgladeEssentially, we're asking for meetings for sub-teams of the main team. If only we could define sub-teams, we could then have channels on those.

This is absolutely needed... such a key feature to be able to separate your team into smaller pieces and schedule meetings directly with them... please make this change soon!...

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 app and schedule meeting as usual, and 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. 🙂

Hi, im a fellow TEAMs user. This is what worked for me and my organization:

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.

@ChrisHoardMVP - Thank you for the support. I am a CISO at a company supporting law enforcement sensitive data. Without this feature, it is very difficult for me to collaborate with users where me must meet control requirements for protected and sensitive data.

Hello @ChrisHoardMVP
Would you please shed some light on whether Microsoft is still considering adding the option of scheduling a meeting within a locked channel only for the people added to the same channel?

Microsoft, please get this done ASAP.
It is a no brainer feature that needs immediate implementation.
Clear value for work and school teams and likely for others.

Sir, is there already a timeline or target date for the implementation of set schedule in the private channel or adding calendar by selecting private channel.

I found this but am checking to see if it works as advertised as a work around. https://scoutsaustraliansw.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360041835192-How-to-Schedule-a-meeting-from... @marlkallos

Yes, there is a way to schedule meetings to private channels. I will put the steps below:
Step 1.
Get the email address of the channel. You can do this by going to the channel and clicking on "more options" to get the email of the channel.
Step 2.
Go to outlook calendar and create a new event. Put the title of the meeting and the next is to paste the email address of the channel you got from step 1.
Step 3.
Check your schedule day and time
Step 4.
From the drop down, Select "Teams Meeting"
Step 5.
Save and you are done. You should see the link in the private channel

I've tried this but the email does not send the invite to the participants of the private channel, and only creates the invite in my own calendar.
I'm not sure if this is a limitation based on how our internal IT guys have configured Teams for use.

+1 for this feature, super important!

@dizlet Also, Teams released Breakrooms in Preview. But they only added it for private meetings. This makes it harder to use with a class that are part of a channel.
