0060 - The General Channel Best Practice 5:52

1 day پیش5:52

5:52

If your Teams site is more than a few months old, you likely still have a channel named "General." If you leverage channels, as you should, this channel may serve no obvious purpose yet. Or, if you don't leverage channels, this channel may have become a dumping ground for everything. Regardless, the General channel has been a source of clutter and uncertainty for a lot of Teams users and site owners. In this episode, Annie Rynd tells you a great best practice that gives the General channel a purpose. And, if your Teams site is only a couple months old and you do not have a General channel, you'll probably want to build one after listening to this best practice.
