I wanted to give you all an update on this.

So, we have been reviewing this item and we’ve found that its a very difficult to do, given how our product is currently built.

We are interested in hearing any workarounds you have done in order to meet this need (moving content around), as this may help us think of new ways to solve for this. Please add your thoughts in the reply chain.

Thanks for your help, and the great ideas.

Sincerely,
Suphatra

I also have this need. At least i would like to be able to move the content or attach it to another Team/Channel.
Would be great to have this oportunety.

We create channels as separate projects under individual project managers. We sometimes reassign a project to a different project manager and need to have the ability to simply transfer the channel from one team to another.

The survey isn't active anymore, but this feature is certainly needed. We need to constantly reconfigure our teams and channels as a practical matter - work changes, team compositions change, priorities change - the ability to move channels between teams would be of great help.

Is the survey already closed or is it broken? When I click the link, it says "Sorry, this survey is not currently active."

The ability to move channels from different teams into a new team for a project.. often different diciplines are building up requirements in their dicipline team for a project in anticipation of the project starting.. then once the project start it would be great to move all those channels into a project specific team..
