As we are diving back into Microsoft Teams, as promised, another tip when you're using chat so here we are with Kari's Tips and Tricks #102: The Shared Tab in Teams Chat.
How Do YOU Like to Learn?
Since I'm in the business of learning - there are always 2 ways you can learn this tip #1 - Read the step by steps with screenshots or #2 - watch the video (or #3 - both 😊)
Teams Chat Tab Changes from Files to Shared
In a chat, there used to be a Files tab which showed you the shared files. This has been renamed to the Shared tab. It now includes any file that has been shared but also includes any links (which is SUPER helpful). As I noted last week, the longer you have used Teams, the longer your chats are - so any easy way to find things is a TIME SAVER!
Shared Tab
1. Select any chat.
2. Click on the Shared tab. It shows all the files and links shared in your chat as well as who shared them and the date they were shared. Additionally, (especially if the list is long) you can filter by files, recent or links. It is also searchable using Filter by keywords.
3. When you select a file or link, you will see a ribbon with additional opens like, Copy link, Download, or Open.
4. You could also hover over the chat bubble and click to go back to that spot in the chat.
