While you can join public teams<\/a>, or you may have been provided an access code to join a private team<\/a>, most<\/em> of the time someone adds you to their Teams space. If you\u2019re lucky, the name they gave the Team is an answer unto itself. If you\u2019re not<\/em> lucky, they named it \u201cEngineering\u201d and you work with eight different engineering groups. A description is included when creating a Team<\/a>, but how do you read<\/em> that description? At the bottom of your Teams listing, click on the little gear.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

You will see a summary of your Team memberships \u2013 along with the description.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

If you’re still not sure, ask the Team owner. Click the not-quite-a-hamburger menu across from the Team and select \u201cManage Team\u201d.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

You\u2019ll see the Team owners. Hover your mouse over a name, and you can quickly send the person a chat message.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Tip for Team Owners: In addition to providing a brief team description, you can add a Wiki tab to your Teams space with more information on how the Team and its channels should be used — if you’ve got a “Watercooler Discussion” channel for off-topic commentary, or if a channel receives posts from an RSS feed or another connector<\/a>, you can convey that information to Team members in a Wiki tab.<\/p>\n
