Inviting members to a team or channel in Teams
In this manual we will instruct you on how to invite members to your team using different methods. Please note that it is possible to invite both internal and external members at the same time.
Inviting an internal member
- Find the team that members will be invited to.
- Choose the 3 dots to the right of the Team name.
- Click Add member.
- Search for and choose the persons name from the list and then click on Add. If you wish to add more than one member at the same time, just keep typing in the names.
- When you have chosen your members you must give them rights and permissions. Click on them individually and choose: Owner or Member.
Remember that all students are also in our system. To be sure that you invite the right person, use the Umu-id or email address.
