It would be nice to convert some of our already established channels to private now the feature is available in the same way it may be desired to de-classify a private channel to public at some point too.

Currently a channel privacy can only be set during creation.

Hi there, I've setup a private channel in a Team for supervisors only. I'd like to "host" the regular staff meeting in the private channel, but i can only select "public" channels. Can Microsoft add the ability to host Team meetings within a private channel?

We have just started using Private Channels, which is great as our team has sub teams within it and this way we can have private discussions, without creating multiple teams.

What we'd also like to do is create Planner Plans within the Private Channels that are only accessible to those within the Private Channel. Is this on the roadmap?

Its good that Private channels are introduced in MS Teams. Can we have a option to convert a private channel to public channel.

Thanks & Regards,
Bhanu

Presenters should have control of unmuting the students and not let the students unmute themselves

ability to rearrange the speaker & participants videos in the window. you should be able to move the video pane to the top of the screen

Teachers are assigning work for students to complete. But students are handing in assignments with no work or blank work.
Can the Hand-In button be disabled if students have not uploaded anything or added to the resources they have been provided.
Part of schools working remotely is trying to keep a track of which students are not completing work. Then calling parents to discuss this. Making it so that students can hand in an assignment without having done anything makes checking very difficult.

Ability to track and monitor scheduled Teams Live events. Due to the increased interest and usage of Teams Live events, we need to ensure that scheduled Teams Live events are monitored to prevent any network degradation and no more than 15 events are scheduled concurrently due to the limitation.

We use Teams everywhere - PCs, mobile, Yealink phones, etc. We have an Xbox in our meeting room - since the Xbox is a powerhouse and can accomodate a big screen monitor, HD web cam, speakers, mics, etc., how about Teams on the Xbox? It would save us from spending another $5K on a Teams meeting room device... and how cool would it be?

I'd like to be able to copy a conversation link in a private channel, like you can for a public channel. This presently doesn't exist. I would imagine the link would appear as a dead link (not authorized), to anyone not in the private channel.

I would like to customize the Lobby view after I ship out an invite to a third party. Some examples:
- Adding my company logo
- Embedding the lobby in surrounding HTML.

Introduce option to put participant thumbnail views during a Teams meeting to the top of the screen when someone is sharing their screen.
Zoom does this and visually it looks like we're talking to each other as opposed to the bottom of our screens. That slight tilt of the neck is ever-so more ergonomic too.

Provide delete chat option. We accumulate too many chat and delete would allow to keep a tidy chat space

Similar to what other platforms have, while in a meeting have an option to select "breakout rooms" and let have option to auto-manage and divide the breakout room(s) or manually assign people to a breakout room

I need to be able to adjust the location of my self-view video elsewhere on the screen. My camera is positioned at the top of my screen, but I have to look down to the bottom right to see myself. I'd like to be able to position my self-view directly below my camera or hide the self-view entirely if too distracting

Folders in Teams are sorted by default on last modified date. There is no option to set a different default sort order like an alphabetic sort order.

Please add options that allows the user to set his/her own default sort order in order to sort folder names in Teams.

Issue is inconsistency when adding users to private channels via the web and desktop clients. Sometime users can and sometimes users can't. Workarounds to this solution include adding them on mobile (both IoS/Android) and completely removing member from the Team and re-adding them
