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

    It being September 2024 and still not resolved.

    Typical usecase Microsoft is that as a result of COVID, teams was rushed out and after some time, people realised the "knowledge" needed to be classified and sorted into some meaning. New channels formed but the knowledge of the post and replies and the time metadata remains in the old channel.

    You have an opportunity to fix and to make this a good knowledge management system but as you wont, people will look for another solution... Please for the love of Odin, fix this !

    Oh no!
    They updated Teams and did NOT take this into account! What a pity...

    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.

    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.

    I can see that this deviates from the "usual" chat app features but since it's for "Teams" it would really make sense and every couple of months i forget that i am missing this feature and have to find out again that it doesn't exist when looking at the mess in the channels :(
