Unable to create a Shared Channel even though option is turned on in Global Policy

[TobyPrior]

Hi,

I am trying to create Shared Channels under my Teams but the option isn't available to me.  I only have the options for Standard and Private.

I have checked the Teams policies and there is only one policy (Global) and the option for Shared Channels is turned on there.  

I am not sure why it's not available to me or my people.  Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

Toby

Hi, you also have to enable the Public Preview in Teams. See attached articles.

Microsoft Teams Connect shared channels is rolling out to public preview - Microsoft Tech Community

Thanks @ChristianJBergstrom .  This has fixed it.

Cheers,
