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.

    Seems related to the update. Our users that didn't update this morning still have the button.

    Seeing the same issue today. Everything worked as intended yesterday, but the Giphy button is gone today. Disabling/enabling Optional Connected Experiences did not fix. Is this related to the update in the past 24 hours?
