How to edit a channel

To edit a channel, open the channel you want to edit by clicking on its title from the Channel page

Click the edit button. Make the necessary changes and click save. All members of the channel will be notified that you made the update. 

@ mentions

You can @mention anyone in your team to notify them of a message or to bring them into a channel by typing @ then their name and clicking on their name when it appears. 

When you @mention someone who is not already a member of the channel you will be asked if you want to add the person to the channel or not. If you add them to the channel (check the checkbox next to their name), they will be notified and will be able to view and send messages on the channel. If you choose not to add them (x out of the pop-up), they will see the message in their unread messages but will not be able to access the channel.

Now you know what Channels is all about... but don't just take our word for it, go take her for a spin yourself.
