Admin can add users to team without notification

Hello,

A couple of my team members previously had admin access to our team's site on a separate admin account from my main account. Our management removed this recently because they were unsure about our ability to add and remove users to Teams, specifically channels. They were about to start using a management team with documents they don't want users to see.

The main concern was that the admin account could add their main account to a Team they shouldn't be in.

Is there a way to set up a notification to owners of the team and channel if an admin adds another user?

Thanks for the help

    Hi @Joseph Burd

    Is there a way to set up a notification to owners of the team and channel if an admin adds another user?

    If an administrator adds a user, there will be no notification. This is by design. There will only be notifications when membership changes. For more details about channel notification, you could refer to:
