Guests should be able to send files in private chats
Guest can send files/images inside channels but not inside private chats. Without that feature the communication with external developers or testers is almost not possible or had to be done inside a channel, which would disturb other team members.

We have tested Teams with the free version and liked Teams very much.
But after migrated to the paid version we found out that it's not possible for Guest user to attach file to private chat or group chat. We had to ***** the paid version and returned back to the free Teams version just because of this.As I can see, this request has been for over two years without news. Can you please update with news please?

We now have to use work-arounds instead.

Dear Microsoft. Please fix this. It is making my company look unprofessional when dealing with external developers, which in turn makes both my developers and said external developers, truly hate using MS Teams (esp for multi-tenant projects). I'm not sure you want to cultivate this perception of your products. There is no technical or product reason not to implement this functionality. Thanks.

Definitely a must

This makes zero sense. If Teams is going to truly compete with the big buys like Goggle and Slack, they need to start paying attention to the full gamut of functionality.

If I can do this with Skype, why can't I do this with Teams?

This urgently needed for private document sharing if we don't want to create multiple Teams.

I strongly hope that this feature will be implemented.
Without this feature, we will have to use mail to send and receive files with the guest account! -

Needs a fix. Currently my customers are 2nd class chat-members and have to email files to me (unless they have a link-sharing feature)

Thats something that is really needed, as Long private Channels are not released.

Many companies are multi-tenant. I'm a 'guest' to our other companies on 5 tenants. It's so frustrating I can't send files to colleagues in a private chat! It's a basic principle of effective collaboration surely? Really surprised this hasn't been fixed yet. I have to resort to email as most of the time it's not appropriate to send within a channel.
