New Feature in Microsoft Teams: Forwarding Messages to and from Channels

on
An upcoming Microsoft Teams feature will allow users to forward posts and reply messages to and from channels, enhancing collaboration by reducing limitations on the type of content that can be forwarded.  Change for users: Currently, users cannot forward messages to and from channels. With this new feature, users can select the three-dot More actions menu on any channel post or reply message and choose Forward. In the Forward this message dialog box, users can select any destination chat or channel, with channels now included in the people picker. Admin Impact: This feature will be enabled by default. Admins can control message forwarding for individual teams or at the tenant level using sensitivity labels control data important to the organization. If a sensitivity label is applied, message forwarding will be disabled, blocking users from sharing content outside the channel. The feature will according to the Roadmap ID 469508 be rolling out in January or February 2025.

A simplified way to handle your notifications

Notifications can be overwhelming in a large organization. And I am pleased to see Microsoft's roadmap have an item that is supposed to be rolling out soon, called: Microsoft Teams: Simplified Global Notification Settings (Roadmap ID 65636) 

It promises an easier way to manage all your notifications, globally in Teams. There was just a post in the Admin Center, explaining a slight delay in the roll-out of this feature, but you can get a sneak-peak over at the techcommunity.
