Move conversations to different channels
If a conversation is started in one channel but gains importance to the point where the conversation deserves its own channel. Or a conversation was started in the wrong channel and needs to be moved

Feature is strongly needed to "clean the house" frequently.

How is this not possible yet?

The only work-around I've found to move a discussion is to copy the link from the original comment and paste the link into a new comment in the correct or new channel. That said this should still be an option if for no one else then for team owners.

I don't understand why these enhancement ideas that are apparently in development don't appear in the Office 365 Teams roadmap. When I look in the roadmap there are all sorts of useless (to me!) features, yet none of these core issues that are raised in the user feedback forum appear at all.

Posted a message in the wrong channel. I can copy, then delete, but then replies would be lost! Would love to be able to move messages from one channel to another within a team.

This is a sorely needed feature, especially when migrating from competing products...any update (as mentioned previously the survey is closed).

Any updates on this feature? Also the survey is not around anymore if you do need more questions answered.

Yep, just created a team from a group chat. I'd like to be able to move the chat history into the General tab conversation.

Any update? Suphatra doesn't work for MS any more and the last update is from 6 months ago. Is this going to go in with Private Channels?

This is a great idea and I'm looking forward to seeing it implemented. As we adopt Teams, sometimes users post messages in the wrong channel. This is ok...it's part of the learning process. But it would be good for Team owners to be able to do the housekeeping and move topics of conversation to the relevant channel. Any ETA when this will be available?

Hi, any updates on this feature? It would help us a lot to keep channels organized, and to find back earlier conversations.
