Option to enable GIFs in messaging policy seems to be missing entirely now. Only Memes and Stickers are available. Was there a feature change or is there something at the administration level that we can do to re-enable this feature?
Sending multimedia content and documents within chat conversations in Microsoft Teams
Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
If you press the windows key & the period key at the same time, the search box pops up with the gif options there.
Oh, I got so hopeful...but nope! (I'm on a Mac)-- a window did open to a list of keyboard shortcuts but there was nothing for GIFs. :(
You need to follow these steps:
- Enable Optional Connected Experiences in Settings->Privacy
- Sign-out (click your avatar at the top-right and click Sign Out)
- Simply closing or quitting the Teams app is not sufficient.
- Sign back in again.
This worked for me. I had to close the application after and reopen and they all showed up. Thank you
Unfortunately for this gif question windows icon + "." only pops up the emoji options, not the gif options.
If you press the windows key & the period key at the same time, the search box pops up with the gif options there.
This did NOT work for me. The only resolution my team was able to find was to press the Windows key & the "." simultaneously & then the gif options appear & you can search for them.
