All the chats that I had added to my Favorites disappeared after I came back from vacation. Presumably, this is because chats are auto-hidden after an expiration time of some kind? I was able to find the chats by searching for the people.

My suggestion is to persist the chats indefinitely in the Favorites list by default. And let the user decide whether they want to Hide the chat or remove it from the Favorites list.

adding external contacts easily

Many collaboration tools, such as WebEx Teams, display an icon for the people that have read a message on a Team chat (channel) or private messages.

It helps people know that your message has been read.

When you have a list of contacts, it would be great to be able to group them by who is available, who is offline etc. At the moment it is hard to see who is available just by their different coloured icons.

Different status color when user is busy/in meeting while different when in call - It will help decide if user to be called directly (as of now it is not clear from status if user should be called)

Create a custom group tag that only has certain members of the team to quickly get the same peoples attention

Being able to see if a user is typing or has seen a certain conversation in a channel would be really handy. When team members don't respond I'd like to know if they at least saw the conversation to that point to know if I need to reach out to them again or not.

When I try to Create a new contact group, or add a contact to a contact group, i generally expect to click that option, then immediately type in the name. Instead, I then need to click inside the text box before typing. This is a bit annoying since I'm trying to add a bunch of contacts to various groups. I'm working in the Windows 10 application

Teams のチャットの連絡先を一括で登録したい

Provide the ability to bulk add contact information for chat in Microsoft Teams

■Description(内容):
現在の Teams の機能では、チャットの連絡先に一人ずつメンバーを追加することはできるが、個々で操作をする必要があるため、手間がかかる。
そのため、Office 365 で作成したグループのメンバーを一括で追加する機能や管理者が連絡先を一元管理する機能を要望します。

It takes time and effort to add members to chat contact information one by one.

For improvement of usability, provide the ability to bulk add multiple members in a group created in Office 365. Or allow admins to manage contact information centrally.

Thank you for your consideration.

nickname functionality

Add the support for getting a full list of session details via the "Get-CsUserSession" Powershell command like it is currently available for "Skype for Business Online".

Thank you in advance!

Ability to search for people within teams by Title as well as Name. This was possible is Skype.

Allow someone to put in times of availability and during that time it should show that the person is available even when idle.

Teams is used by many organisation. A new status "In Meeting" will be very beneficial, if someone is going to attend the meeting.

Update person status to away automatically and immediately if workstation is locked.

Allow all users to be able to see who has seen a post @ the bottom of the recent message
