Moving posts from one channel/Team to another?

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

    I have been able to use the Copy feature to put a link in the correct Channel pointing to the original Posting on the wrong Channel.

    It works but is not what I needed it to do.

    Ditto here... a feature really needed to effectively groom an evolving Team Community.

    While I'm dreaming...

    It would also be nice if it were possible to copy as set of Team Chat messages into a channel as a conversation. I can't count the number of times a thread is started in a chat conversation that really should have initiated in a Team Channel. Just like moving a conversation posted in the wrong channel to a new channel... it would be useful for Team Chats as well.

    This is an unhelpful response but I’ll dignify it with my own. Slack will lose most of its market share that isn’t ported with Salesforce to Teams in the upcoming years. Teams is light years beyond slack with its integrations to other products. Teams doesn’t just replace Slack (which I used for

    2 years before switching) but it also replaces DropBox, Outlook, Zoom and texting. Slack just can’t hold a candle.

    So thanks for telling us one of the few things Slack can do that Microsoft can’t quite yet. Definitely room for growth, but Slack is in the dust and rear view as far as my business is concerned.

    Maybe the solution is to use Slack...! .....with Salesforce now owning Slack, Microsoft need to step up!

    This missing functionality is what is stopping us from onboarding the use of MSTeams. We quickly ended up with a structural mess and no way to resolve it. Talking to my wife who works for a much larger organisation, she says they have an even bigger mess and resulting in a corporate Teams structure that is so hamstrung that nobody uses it.
