Hi @Prasad-MSFT , one follow-up question, where is the 'channel site' section that you mention in Step 5? Thanks for your help!

Hi, I cannot find the "Channel site" section, I'm the team Owner, I'm missing something?

Thanks.

step 5, "Under the "Channel site" section, select the "Connect to an existing SharePoint site" option" does not exist

Hi Hanna W, Marco Zinesi | Bitgo, Patricia Callahan

you can refer this document and create Teams channel following the steps mentioned. "Channel site" section & the "Connect to an existing SharePoint site" option seems to be missing in the UI, so let's follow the steps mentioned in the above document.
