Updated March 27, 2024: We have updated the rollout timeline below for DoD organizations. Thank you for your patience.
In Microsoft Teams, we are extending support for channel links to include both private and shared channels. Once released, members of private and shared channels will be able to get links to a private or shared channel or channel post to share with other Teams users.

[How this will affect your organization:]
Users will now be able to share links to private and shared channels and channel posts with other members of the channel. Users who are not members of the channel will not be able to access the channel or channel post. Only members of the channel will be sent to the channel or post when clicking on a channel link.
[What you need to do to prepare:]
There is no action needed to prepare for this change. You may want to notify your users about this change and update any relevant documentation as appropriate.
