Teams

00:00:02

Private channels within the same work team.

00:00:05

It is sometimes useful to be able to

00:00:08

exchange and collaborate on confidential

00:00:10

aspects or those you do not wish to

00:00:13

disclose to the entire workgroup.

00:00:15

To set up a private channel,

00:00:17

it's very simple.

00:00:18

Use the Team management menu,

00:00:20

then choose Add Channel.

00:00:24

Enter a name for this channel,

00:00:25

a description if you wish.

00:00:28

Finally, under Privacy, select Private.

00:00:32

By choosing this last option,

00:00:34

you will need to add the members

00:00:36

who can see this channel.

00:00:38

Note these members must already be present

00:00:41

in the team members receive a notification.

00:00:43

As for any addition to a team's channel,

00:00:46

the private channel is created.

00:00:48

You can recognize it by

00:00:51

the small padlock icon.

00:00:53

Here are some additional important details.

00:00:55

A private channel cannot be converted

00:00:57

into a public channel and vice versa.

00:01:00

It is at creation that you define the

00:01:03

confidential status of the channel and it

00:01:06

is not possible to change it afterward.

00:01:09

Private channels are limited to 30 per team.

00:01:12

The number of members is limited to

00:01:14

250 in the same private channel.

00:01:17

Shared Channels.

00:01:18

If you wish to create a channel but one

00:01:21

of your collaborators is not in the team,

00:01:23

you have the option to share a channel.

00:01:26

To do this, when creating a channel,

00:01:28

select Shared.

00:01:30

Then you can add your collaborator

00:01:32

who is not in your team.

00:01:36

This shared channel is visible and

00:01:39

recognizable by the icon located here.

00:01:42

This collaborator will only have

00:01:44

access to this channel in this team.

00:01:46

They will not have access to other

00:01:50

channels or resources of this team.
