How to Use Sections in Teams

Introduction 

This video introduces a powerful feature in Microsoft Teams called "Sections," aimed at improving organisation and workflow efficiency.

Purpose of Sections 

Sections help users categorise and manage channels and chats, reducing clutter and enhancing productivity. 

Creating a Section 

Select a channel or chat, click the three dots to open the sub menu. At the top of the sub menu click the "Move to" option to create a new section and name it.

Adding Chats and Channels 

Drag and drop other related channels or chats into the section.

Managing Sections 

Click the three dots next to the section name to access the settings. From here you can change the sort order of the items in the section, rename the section or delete the section. Deleting the section does not delete the channels and chats contained in it.

Benefits 

• Personalised organisation of channels and chats.

• Easier access to frequently used channels and chats.

• Ability to sort within sections by most used, most recent, or unread only.

• Flexibility to rename or remove sections as needed.

Conclusion 

Sections enables you to create your own personalised groups of channels and chats making it easier for you to focus on what truly matters.
