Whiteboard in Teams

Question

Dear Sir / Madam,

We can use "whiteboard" function in teams meeting.

Now, I'd like to use the function in "chat" or "channel".
However "whiteboard" is not revealed by "the addition of tab" in "chat" or "channel".
Is it possible to add the function ?

If impossible, I will use powerpoint instead of it.

Best regards,

Hi @94880678,

Whiteboards in Teams work only in meetings.

Unfortunately, you can't use it in chats or channel directly.

But after meeting, you can use Whiteboards from the Teams meeting chat.

Hi 94880678!

As TKujala said, Microsoft Teams is not support whiteboard in chats or channels directly.

Some customers also have the same request about it. We recommend you vote for it in Teams UserVoice. (Link: https://microsoftteams.uservoice.com/forums/555103-public/suggestions/39041977-whiteboard-on-chat). Microsoft will always focus on customer’s feedback and experience. Some new features would be added to the services based on customers' feedback in the future, and your good ideas will be very helpful for them to improve the service.

Your time, understanding and cooperation will be highly appreciated.
