Hi,

2 errors that appear to be related to a new team/channel being created.

When creating a new team, we can no longer get the email address nor change the picture. 

No issues with previously created teams/channels. 

Confirmed: 

  • Waited for 3 days
  • Error occurs on App and Web versions
  • App is on latest version
  • Error occurs on both Windows and Mac

    I've experience the same issue.  I'm also not concerned about uploaded a picture for the team, but the email address for the channels will be crucial for the use of the some of the teams I'd like to build.

    Same problem here with team/channel email addresses - I'm not so concerned with changing the picture but definitely getting the email address for the channels on a fairly new (And big) project that I was hoping to get everyone on board using Teams for....

    Thanks for the Tip. Unfortunately it was already private. I switched it to Public and Private several times to test, but didn't work.
