[CHANNELS] Post Order - Use Top Down (Recent -Old)
Request Display post top-down using recent - old (cfr Outlook) Pin to the top (cfr Outlook) Context: Currently the ordering of the posts is bottom up, with the most recent post at the bottom. This is confusing and it deviates from other apps with similar functionalities (fb, twit,...). The use of the team channel to convey important information fails, as users are acustommed to find recent information on top. I do not understand why MS Teams has adopted another apporach than commonly used is similar applications. Why did you not adhere to your own methodologies: outlook is top-down. Pls use consistent approaches in your apps. Do check the MS-outlook on ordering and pinning post (emails). Thnx.
Microsoft Flow: @mention action not working for Teams reply
Hi, I'm currently working on a Flow which should be automatically called when a new mail arrives in a teams channel. This mail is from a facility information service an provides info regarding packages and guests. As there is no specific notification for this mail and so guest could be overseen, I want to add a mention notification to this mail in the channel. I tried with an automatic flow, with the trigger "when a new post is added to a channel" and then a condition with "if the sender from name is "SENDERNAME" is true" then call a "get mention token for a user" action and add this token to the "reply to message in teams" action. But as soon as I add the mention token action my flow ends in errors saying that I "should correct invalid inputs for the condition" and "correct invalid inputs for my reply to message" action. I have no clue why these errors exist, I have access to the team and channel, logged into a teams session in flow and so on. Can anyone help me in there? If infos are needed to solve this, just ask 😉 Thanks and Regards!Channel Notification Settings Resetting to "Off"
I would like to have members of a team get a notification when someone posts to the channel in that team - a pretty basic feature I would think. In the Channel Notification Settings window (accessed by clicking the 3 dots beside the channel name), the following window opens: I click the drop down menu for "All new posts" and select "Banner and feed", then click save. For some reason when I reopen this channel notifications window the selection for "All new posts" has reset to "Off". Ideally this should be something that could be toggled globally for all teams and channels; however, in the meantime I'd like to figure out why this existing feature is seemingly not working. Anyone else encounter this? Thanks in advance, Chris
How to change location where files from channel conversations are stored
Hello, is there a way to change the location where files (attachments) from an channel conversation are stored. Currently they all go into the root directory of that channel (i.e. /General). This makes the root folder quite messy! Would be nice to be able to define a separate directory: i.e. /general/conversations BTW: A folder for email attachments is created by default as soon as a message to that channel arrived: i.e. /general/Email Messages
Best way to maintain a calendar on Channel
Hello, I'm trying to provide visibility of key meetings to my community. I have multiples Channel in a Teams group and I wanted to leverage the Channel Calendar to do so. Yet many meetings are not organized by me and won't be, hence I cannot use the Channel Calendar to create them. I was thinking to simply forward the invitation to the group or something like this, but not possible. What is the best way to maintain a calendar to be visible to the group members? (And without recreating all meetings + following the changes when they happened....) Thank you
Error Please try again later when adding ANY existing list or creating new list in ANY Teams channel
Hello, I have multiple different lists added as tabs in different MS Teams standard channels and have had them working fine for a year. Company moved over to the new MS Teams a couple months ago and no problems. A couple days ago I had to remove a List from a channel and now, I can't add it back. I keep getting Error Please try again later and the option to click a Refresh button. I did a bunch of troubleshooting to see if it was just this list or just this channel. The most frustrating part is that it doesn't appear to just be this list or channel now. Anything I try to do with the Lists app in Teams (add exisiting list or create a new list) in any channel in any team I have I get that error. The oddest part is that I have a List in one of these channels and it's working fine but I tested to see if I can add that List to another channel in the same team or different team since it's already added and working fine in one channel, but still get the error. Even if I try to add any exisiting list or create a new one to the channel I already have the working List in, still get the error. I've created new teams and standard channels to test this and still....the same error. My organization uses Lists in Teams specifically to manage and track important employee information and communicate using our teams channels. I am at a loss here and can't seem to find a solution. I've done troubleshooting with Lists already and posted this on the Microsoft Lists community hub as well but wanted to post here too since it could be both or some kind of issue with MS Teams itself. FYI - I've already done tons of troubleshooting with MS Teams the last couple days, everything you can imagine, including uninstalling, reinstalling, trying on the web, etc, etc, etc, etc.
