you can adjust some settings to better frame how it works.

00:00:08

To get started,

00:00:09

locate the team you want to edit in the team list.

00:00:12

Click the three dots next to the team name,

00:00:14

then choose manage team.

00:00:17

On the management page open the settings tab.

00:00:20

The first section is about team details.

00:00:23

click edit to change the name,

00:00:26

description,

00:00:27

or privacy level.

00:00:29

A private team limits the addition of members to owners.

00:00:33

A public team can be found and joined more easily by people in the organization

00:00:38

if the rules of your environment allow it.

00:00:41

You can also change the team image to make it easier to recognize in the list.

00:00:46

The member permission section allows you to decide what members can do in the team.

00:00:51

For example,

00:00:52

you can allow or prevent members from creating channels,

00:00:56

deleting channels,

00:00:57

adding apps,

00:00:58

creating tabs,

00:01:00

or editing their messages.

00:01:02

These adjustments are important when the team needs to stay well structured.

00:01:07

The more freedom you allow,

00:01:09

the more members can work independently.

00:01:12

The more permissions you restrict,

00:01:14

the more the organization remains controlled by owners.

00:01:19

Guest permissions are for external people added to the team.

00:01:22

They allow you to choose whether guests can create,

00:01:26

update,

00:01:26

or delete channels

00:01:28

depending on what you want them to do.

00:01:31

The mention section allows you to control group notifications.

00:01:35

You can decide whether members can mention the entire team with the team name

00:01:40

or mention an entire channel.

00:01:43

These options should be used with moderation

00:01:45

as a team mentioned can send a notification to a lot of people.

00:01:50

The team code is used to give quick access to the team.

00:01:54

click generate to create a code,

00:01:57

then copy and share it with the right people.

00:01:59

People who use this code can join the

00:02:01

team directly without submitting an approval request.

00:02:05

If the code is no longer to be used,

00:02:07

you can reset or delete it.

00:02:10

Guests can't join a team with a code

00:02:12

and fun tools you can manage gifts,

00:02:15

stickers,

00:02:16

memes,

00:02:16

and some visual content.

00:02:18

These options can make exchanges lighter,

00:02:21

but in a work team,

00:02:23

it can be useful to limit them depending on the context.

00:02:28

The last part presented here concerns the tags.

00:02:32

A tag is used to group several members under the same name.

00:02:36

Instead of mentioning the whole team,

00:02:39

you can mention only a specific group.

00:02:42

Open the tags tab

00:02:44

and then click create tag.

00:02:47

Give the tag a name,

00:02:48

add a description if necessary,

00:02:51

and then select the members you want to include.

00:02:54

Save the tag

00:02:56

in a channel.

00:02:57

Type at followed by the name of the tag.

00:02:59

Teams offers the tag in the list.

00:03:02

When you use it in a message,

00:03:04

only people associated with that tag are notified.

00:03:08

This is a good method to contact a targeted group

00:03:11

without disturbing all team members.
