Hello all,

I have a flow that triggers on a selected message in Teams.

Usually, you can find the flow here, under 'More actions' when hovering over a message and clicking on the ( ... )

However, when trying to perform the same action on a message in a Private Channel, the 'More Actions' menu is nowhere to be found.

I haven't found any documentation, blog or forum discussing this limitation, so any help would be much appreciated.

Sincerely,

Michel

Using flows

Hi @MichelK ,

This seems to be a MS Teams question and I think it is by design. Please check below blog:

https://practical365.com/understanding-types-teams-channels/

in which it says:

Not all Teams apps work with private channels. In fact, while first-party apps like Microsoft Lists work with private channels, others like Planner don’t. Getting an app to work means that the developer needs to support the unique characteristics of private channels, including taking steps to ensure data privacy. Apps like Lists work because they leverage SharePoint Online and use site settings. Other apps aren’t so lucky.

Hope this helps.
