Many of the members of our Team have a "GIF" button along with the emoji and format buttons, but I have never had the ability to add gifs to my chats. I have no idea why this would be happening.

I'm a global admin for my company and couldn't figure out why I didn't have giphy on my teams, despite having the authority to give myself the permission.

while it is possible it's disabled by either an org admin or just the team owner, I found that the icon will also disappear if "optional connected experiences" is not enabled, under privacy in settings.

    but many of the other people at my school are able to post gifs/have access to the gif button.. are we not all part of the same "team"?

    This is already enabled but there are still no GIFs anymore.

    We had them but suddenly the icon was gone.

    Any other options?
