Say, I have a channel named teamA
, and also got a channel named subTeamB
, and subTeamB
is actually a sub-team of team A, e.g. all members in subTeamB
included in teamA
.
In this case, is that possible to have subTeamB
nested inside teamA
?
Channels can be merged with existing public channels without creating duplicate message content. If the channel names do not match exactly, you'll need to manually set them to merge. Channels can't be merged with existing private channels in Slack. Instead, you can import them as new private channels.
Slack doesn't have sub-channels but you can mimic by using some conventions. Eg. If you using this Slack workspace exclusively for discussing Covid-19 you may remove the covid prefix which may be redundant.
No, you can not have channels within a channel in Slack.
As a workaround you could name the channels in a way that they reflect sub-channels.
Examples:
#teamA-subTeamA
#teamA-subTeamB
This is also what Slack recommends on its documentation page about Organizing and naming channels.
