Support hashtags in channels and DMs
Allow clickable links on #hashtagged items ... in a channel or group, perform a search within that group.
For DMs and conversations, search all of your conversations

When will this be available? This seems like it could help with collaboration in a key way.

Still waiting for hashtag functionality in Teams. Surprising this is still unavailable in 2020.

This really isn't complicated. At the VERY bare minimum, having the regex on the all messages that automatically formats a hashtag would be the most simple feature. Then, automatically adding a hyperlink to a hashtag to send it to the search box cannot possibly take more than 5-10 lines of code...if that!

I was surprised to find that MS Teams doesn't do ANYTHING with hashtags. It doesn't even format them. How strange....

I don't know why this feature is still unsupported in teams. In developement point of view, adding this feature is not a hard job. But the benefit of this feature to users is very critical.

Didn't we forget to celebrate our anniversary? It was November 3, 2016, when Sean shared the idea to support #hashtags in Microsoft Teams. We have been begging for over three years for this 'down to earth' feature and it is still in the backlog.
Warren, with all my sympathy, could you please mark this idea as 'rejected' so that we all move on to something more productive that staring hopelessly at this page for any positive update?
Thank you. -

Critical to this product being successfully adopted in our long-term knowledge management and communication strategy.

Even if #hashtags is not possible, some form of being able to tag comment threads would be really great. For example, in one of the Teams I'm in we have just wrapped up a valuable conversation thread that had 35 replies. If we could somehow tag this conversation to search for later that would be great!

Using it on Slack, I think it is a very useful tool to find old threads

To expand slightly:
Message authors and other users should be able to use tags on individual messages to set relevant contexts. Readers should be able to use tag-based filters for both: setting notifications specific to tags and to filter a channel's history to specific context based on a tag or combination of tags. -

This feature would really help us move from short emails to teams, We are in danger of having messy chat streams or numerous new chat teams without it.

This is definitely a roadblock in adoption. Topical info is often blackholed, tags would help.
