Public versus Private Teams
In Microsoft Teams, public Teams are visible and accessible to everyone in the organization, while private Teams require explicit invitation and permission to join.
- Private teams can only be joined if the team owner adds someone to them. All Team members can request a user be added but only the Team owner can approve membership.
- Public teams are visible to the entire campus (fac/staff/students) from the Teams gallery and people can join them without getting approval from the Team owner.
Public teams are suitable for general communication and collaboration, while private teams are used for more sensitive or focused discussions.
We strongly recommend that all Teams be set to "Private" and require an invitation to join.
