Use the Teams ID in the List Channels action and then filter that array of channels on the display name being equal to the one you want. That will give you the Channel ID that you need to post the message to the channel. Something like this

Hello,
Thank you for your quick answer.
when i create the "List channels" action, i get this error:
Failed to parse invoker connections from trigger 'manual' outputs. Exception: Could not find property 'headers.X-MS-APIM-Tokens' in the trigger outputs. Workflow has connection references '["shared_teams"]' with invoker runtime source.

So I just tried a flow doing what you have described and it works fine for me. Here's the basic flow.

I have a similar issue. My filter array returns nothing. Looking at the Raw data, it is showing "display name" instead of Channel Name which could be the issue?
