Teams gif button missing

Anonymous

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.

Oh my gosh!!! THANK YOU! I have struggled with this for ages, and kept seeing replies about admins enabling gifs - which was clearly not the answer as some team members could see gifs, while others couldn't!

Does anywhere here know where the setting is to make your comments in a chat appear in a purple box? That seems to have disappeared since I installed Win 11, which is frustrating as it can be used to trace when last you participated in a discussion, and thus from where you need to read the thread.
