Hello team, We want to restrict the Teams channel permissions so that only members can see messages. We had a problem recently when a team member scheduled a meeting. We tried to create policies for channels, but they seem to apply only to USER permissions, not Team channel permissions. We also modified a channel setting to let only Owners post messages, but users can still schedule meetings and respond to threads. Thank you for your help in setting up this specific requirement.

    There are no such settings. Teams is built on the concept of "equal access" for all users, so if you want to distribute messages/documents that only certain people should see, best chose a different media.

    You can however restrict who can start new threads or reply to existing ones, by adjusting the Moderation settings for the channel.
