The Details of Create a Team
Features for Create a Team
Microsoft Teams is the hub for teamwork in Microsoft 365. Conversations, files and notes across team channels are only visible to members of the team. Teams is a unified communication and collaboration platform that combines persistent workplace chat, video meetings, file storage, and application integration.
Every time you create a new Team, the following are also created in the background:
- Microsoft 365 Group
- SharePoint Online site
- Exchange Online shared mailbox & calendar
- OneNote notebook
