As a community owner, you can now control visibility settings for your community. If you make your community visible, anyone can find it when they do a search in Microsoft Teams Free, and it also might be recommended to users to join.

How to make your community visible

  1. In Teams, tap Home   in the lower-left side of the screen.

  2. Tap the community that you would like to make visible.

  3. Tap the community name at the upper-left corner.

  4. Turn on Public. Your community will appear in Search and recommendations within 24 hours. You can turn this option off at any time to make your community hidden.

    Note: Community members will not receive a notification when you change the community to visible or hidden.

When you make your community visible in Microsoft Teams Free, there are additional options you can change to help manage community membership.
