In this very article, I’ll be guiding you on creating and scheduling meetings by targeting it to a private channel. By doing so, it would be displayed only on the calendar of members who are in a respective private channel. As private channel in team app only provides Meet Now feature, it’s a simple trick you shall follow to get your meeting requirement addressed. We’ll create an email for private channels and use that email to invite all members of the private channel. Let’s not complicate things and get started.
Step 1: Go to a private channel and click on more option (…) to get the email of the channel as shown in the image below. Click on “Get email address“
Step 2: You’ll get an email address to your private channel in Team. Copy that email (only portion inside angular bracket as highlighted below).
Step 3: Go to the general channel or any public channel from where you can access Schedule a meeting feature and click on schedule a meeting. You can use the calendar to start scheduling meetings.
Step 4: As shown above, you should remove any channel from the channel list and enter the email that you’ve copied in step 2 as shown below.
Fill all the meeting details and click on Save option on the top right corner. BANG! YOU’RE DONE!!! The meeting will be created, scheduled, and displayed only to members of the private channel that you’ve copied e-mail of.
