My current manager is leaving and I’m getting ready to step into their shoes. As part of this process I’m recreating all of the team meetings that existed. There’s a level of inherent frustration in that this will end the previous series of meetings and, while the old meeting chat will still exist, we’ll essentially move onto a new meeting chat fragmenting the chain of conversations.
So when I created the new meeting, I had a goal of preventing this from happening again. I wanted to make sure that when I some day move on, this transfer is easier and doesn’t result in the old conversations getting fragmented again. As an initial test, I created a new channel in our team and created a meeting linked to the channel. The expectation was that since it was in a persistent channel, the meeting history would be preserved. To my horror, we were back in the exact same spot. The chat for the meeting in the channel was placed into it’s own separated thread, meaning when I some day move on and my meeting goes away and a new one is created… it’ll still end the previous thread and start a new one, fragmenting the conversation.
Is there a way to create a teams meeting in a fashion such that the meeting history will be preserved when one meeting ends and another is created in it’s place, since everything that I’ve read also says you can’t transfer ownership of meetings?
