Having rushed into setting things up on Teams due to COVID-19, we now find that we would like to rearrange our teams and use channels more.  Is there an easy way to move content (posts and files) from one team to another, please?

Many thanks

Carol

    This is not enough.  Features stop short of what is needed.

    We definitely need the ability to move and rename channels. Channel movement needs to be across teams. At a minimum all the chats and files need to move with the channel.

    Indeed! For those of us who set up a Team for an initial need where scope changes and we have a greater need for additional channels, this feature would be MOST helpful. My interest lies in copying Chat from the General channel. Looking forward to any developments!

    I totally get that feeling. It's frustrating.

    I work for an education provider and sometimes no matter how many times you tell staff how to use the channels you still get people posting in the wrong places. For a company as big as ours this leads to problems with learners finding information. And it happens every week.

    The simple ability for a team owner to be able to click a button named 'move to channel' and then choose the correct channel to drop the post into would be life changing for teachers/learners/admin at my place of work. Please Microsoft make this simple thing a reality!!??

    Hi All,

    has anyone found a solution for moving entire conversations from one channel in a team, to another channel from a different team?

    Hope someone might be able to help!
