Move a project (channel) from one team to another
We would like to move a project (channel) between groups to keep the information.

This continues to be on our backlog due to prioritization of other work items. We will update when there is more to share.

Come on, guys! We really need this. Maybe this is why Amazon and IBM have gone to Slack????

Would be extremely helpful to have this feature. We are in the process of cleaning up our past mistakes in “designing” our Teams and Channel structures - moving channels or its content to a new channel would be very useful

Top three requested feature and still in the backlog. Maybe a hard task to solve?

Thousands of people in thousands of companies are waiting for this to happen.
When could we expect this backlog item move to a sprint? -

Ah I have a channel with loads of info on and the ownership is changing - There is so much stuff on there. Is there a workaround to move a channel to another team?

Simply putting, "they currently don't know how to properly program it currently, and may be struggling to do it. The 'out of priority' is a common lie in the IT world". This is my honest guess!

@Diana G - I didn't find the third party solution to be unreasonably priced.

I think there is a disconnect between how Teams use is envisioned vs real-world practice. Our school district IT department informed us that, because of archiving laws and policy, that our Teams need to be archive annually "as-is" though I feel like Teams was developed under the pretense that the Team would be static and members would come and go. With many teacher's adopting Teams due to the pandemic, the inability to move our channel structures between various Teams freely will be a deal breaker if you're hoping to win over teachers/districts from more established mediums, such as Blackboard.

Given the current situation (COVID 19), most Canadian Government employees are using MS Teams to exchange and stay organized. Maybe the prioritization should be revisited? Adding nice style to the interface is cool, but real function improvement should be the priority....
You can do it! Yes you can... ;) -

Adding my vote to add this function as soon as possible. Hard to believe it hasn't been done yet. Extremely frustrating, and forces me to look for better solutions as an option to using Teams.

This is incredibly frustrating. As the post below says, this is the third most requested feature. It gets a huge amount of votes. The engineering team posts an update every few months just to say "we've decided to ignore our customer once again". For all the rest we get a big ignore for several years now. In the meantime, everyone redirects us to a third party integrator with a very expensive solution. They get a ton of leads and sales, we get awful experience. Will start looking for alternatives.

"This continues to be on our backlog due to prioritization of other work items." This is the number 3 requested item in your uservoice! If this is not enough to get it prioritized, I think there's something seriously wrong with the project manager!

Really could use this feature as we learn teams and properly organize.

This is essential for our onboarding with Teams. We are trying to get our layout right the first time, but inevitably we will need to move some things around down the line.
