Guest accounts

Guests can be invited to specific channels, either during channel creation, by editing an existing channel, or from workspace settings—and can post, comment, and interact within those channels. They can’t access any other channels unless invited, and they’re restricted from team-wide features like check-ins, team settings, creating channels, or seeing global member lists.

Channels now have the option of being private. Use them to discuss sensitive topics with your team.

How to create a private channel

1. Create a new channel from the sidebar.
