➕Adding and removing members of a channel

Your manager is begging to be added to your coffee break channel? We'll guide you on how to do it but don't worry the final decision is yours.

Adding members 1 by 1

From a chat channel, click the Members button at the top right to display the list of members. The side window has an Add Members button at the bottom right, click it.

A window will open showing the list of members that can be added to the channel.

If the channel is set to public with automatic addition of members, no new members can be displayed and this list will appear empty.

On the Members to be added table, simply mark the desired members. Use the Filters or Columns buttons above to display specific members or columns if needed.

Once you have selected your members, click Add to have them join the channel. They will then receive a related notification.

Deleting Members 1 by 1

To remove individual members, open the sidebar window that displays the list of members in a channel: click the Members button at the top right of a chat channel.

Scroll through the list of members or search for the member you wish to delete from the search bar, then hover your mouse over the member in question: an X button will appear on the right-hand side, click on it to delete the member.

You will not be asked for confirmation, so hover over your list of members carefully!

Once your members have been deleted, simply close the side window with the cross button at the top left. Members deleted from a channel will not receive a notification.

Messages previously sent by a member deleted from a channel will continue to appear in the chat. However, if other members reply to those deleted messages they will no longer receive a notification.

Adding groups to a channel

From within a channel, click on the button associated with the channel name. The edit window that opens shows the groups already associated with the channel. Click Add Groups.

You can then use the search bar that appears to enter the name of the group you are looking for and click on it. You can repeat the search several times in order to add all the desired groups.

If you make a mistake when selecting the desired groups, move your mouse over the group you wish to remove and click on the X that appears on its right.

Once you have selected the desired groups, click on the Add button at the bottom right of your window. Members belonging to these groups are now part of your channel and will receive a notification!

For any group associated with a chat channel:

• adding a member to that group will automatically add them to the channel.

• removing a member from that group will not remove them from the channel, you will need to remove them individually from the channel.

Removing groups from a channel

From within a chat channel, click the button associated with its name to open the channel information sidebar. The "Associated Groups" section displays the groups added to the channel.

For each group, an X button appears to the right of the name: click it to remove the group of channel members. A confirmation window opens to confirm your action.

Members of the deleted group do not receive a notification.

Please note that if you delete a group from a channel, the current members of the group will still be invited to the channel. Only future new members of the group will not be invited
