A team is a group within an organization where members talk in one place. Create a team to separate work, such as one team per project or department.
A team belongs to one organization, and its conversations are visible only to that team's members.
Before you begin
- You must be an owner or admin of the organization. Members cannot create teams.
- Open the organization first: open your user menu (your avatar), select Dashboard, then open the organization.
Steps
1. Open the Create Team dialog
In the sidebar, select Create Team. On the organization's Teams page, you can also select Create Team when the list is empty. The Create Team dialog opens.
2. Name the team
In the Name field, type a name between 2 and 20 characters. As you type, Teamcomms shows the name that will be used in links, in the line "will be created as".
3. Create the team
Select Create Team. Teamcomms creates the team, adds you as a member, and opens the team.
What happens next
- The team appears in the sidebar and on the Teams page for its members.
- Only team members can see the team and open its conversations. Other organization members do not see it.
- You are a member, so you can send messages in the team right away.
- Owners and admins can add other organization members to the team, or rename or delete it.
