How Do I Change My Privacy Settings on Teams Channel?

Published in Microsoft Teams 1 min read

You can't directly change privacy settings for individual Teams channels. Channel privacy is determined by the team's overall privacy settings.

Here's how to change your team's privacy settings:

  1. Go to the team you want to adjust.
  2. Click on the team name (usually at the top of the screen).
  3. Select "Manage team" from the dropdown menu.
  4. Click on "Settings" in the left-hand menu.
  5. Under "Team privacy," choose the desired privacy level:
    • "Public": Anyone in your organization can find and join the team.
    • "Private": Only members invited to the team can join.
  6. Click "Save" to apply your changes.

Note: If you're not a team owner or administrator, you won't be able to change the team's privacy settings.
