    titleChannels


    Info

    Channels are dedicated sections within a team to keep conversations organized by specific topics, projects, etc.

    You can create private channels which can be used to limit conversations to a subset of people within a team. For example:

    • Creating a separate work space for a group or project (e.g. a private channel for IT staff within your department's team)
    • Creating a separate chat space for users to discuss sensitive information (e.g. budgeting)

    In order to create Channels within the team you must be assigned as one of the "owners" of the team
