Stream Channels can only be created based on these two Channel access types. It cannot be created specific on a Team Site without Office 365 Group.
As is quoted from this document: Groups and channel settings in Microsoft Stream:
Channels are an organization method for videos, but not a permission method. Channels don’t have any permissions on their own.
When you create a channel, you decide whether it’s a companywide channel that anyone in your organization can add and remove videos from, or if it’s a group channel where you can limit contributors.
If you want to restrict user access to Stream contents/Channels, a group is required.

Thanks for the details.
1) I cannot find the contributor restrict option in the channel
2) If we upload videos in streams, does it consume SharePoint Online Storage ?
As is referred to the document, for Group channels:
Characteristics of group channels inherits the permissions from the group they are contained in.
All contributors to a group can create channels, add videos to them, remove videos from them, and edit settings about the channel.
And of course, users need Microsoft Stream for O365 license to use Microsoft Stream.
To answer your questions:
Is it possible to call stream videos using spfx in Office 365 Group ? For example, can we calculate the percentage of completed video (viewed by the user) by the user from the stream using spfx ?
@Sajith Gopalakrishnan Hema You can see the document here for reference on Use Microsoft Stream in SharePoint Online via a webpart.
If you need further assistance with calling Stream videos using SPFx in SharePoint Online, please open a new thread for this request since it will be a different topic from this one.
Thank you for your understanding.
Sure.
1) In the membership section of office 365 Group Channel, we can add only individual user. We need to add everyone as a member (Everyone except external user). The option is not there. Any suggestion ?
2) if the use doesnot have access to a channel, is it possible to request for the approval from the stream channel so that the owner can add him/her on their request.
@Sajith Gopalakrishnan Hema To answer your questions:
Thanks for the information.
You will have to add all users to the group or Channel manually. Can you please elaborate ?
I have an office 365 Group Team site and Stream Channel is created based on that. There is no option to edit the group settings once channel is created. I have another Office 365 Group which has everyone and I wanted to make them a member so that they can view the vidoes under this channel
@Sajith Gopalakrishnan Hema
The Everyone except external user is not available when adding contributors to the Channel, so you will need to add users one by one.
Also, only individual users can be accepted to the group as well as the Channel’s membership.
The settings for Office 365 group itself can be found via My content > Groups > select group > Membership.
Thanks for the explanation.
One more query. Is it possible to restrict the Channel Owner not to delete the channel once it is created ? Only the Global Admin or some other admin can delete if it is not needed for the organization.
@Sajith Gopalakrishnan Hema No problem.
It is not possible with the “Allow all members to contribute” option on. Enabling this option will give all group members Edit privilege to the Channel.
If the option is turned off, even the user who has created this Channel will lose the ability to delete the Channel, only Global admins have the privilege to do that. But group members will no longer be able to contribute correspondingly.
Hi @Sajith Gopalakrishnan Hema , do you have any progress on this thread?
