I have a channel listed under the wrong Teams. How is the proper way to move it and all of its contents to the correct Teams?

    Nemanja: 

    At the moment it is only feasible to move Files tab content between the channels (in same or different teams). Tabs and conversations are not yet included. To move files, go to Files tab under the channel in question, select the files you want to move or copy, click on move or copy and to select different team as the destination, click up two times until the list of teams appear. Now select the team you want to move the files tom then the channel and click move/ copy.

    This only works for individual files, not folders. Users need to move an entire channel, folders, or individual files. With the importance in that order.

    Thanks,

    Not true actually... if you are using OneDrive and sync channels to your computer, using ie explorer and with explorer view, you can move whole folders from one channel to another. I've done this recently several times. It just sucks you can't move the whole channel to a new location including all the posts and chat!

    We need to move channels in Teams also. We have a biz dev channel and an active client channel. Once they sign, we move them but we lose all of the chat..we have to archive it and put in new channel. Not sure if this is the only way but its tedious.

    Ditto. What does the Teams team do anyways? So many little missing features.
