Channels in Microsoft Teams streamline collaboration by bringing people, content, and apps together and helping to organize them by project or topic. You will be able to add a Loop workspace tab to standard channels enabling your team to brainstorm, co-create, collect, and organize content—together in real-time. Everyone in the Team gets access to the Loop workspace, even as Team membership changes, and the workspace adheres to the governance, lifecycle, and compliance standards set by the Microsoft 365 Group backing the team. To get started, click the plus sign (+) at the top of the channel and select Loop from the app list.

Imagine you're organizing a large conference. You have different teams working on various aspects like logistics, marketing, and speaker coordination. To keep everyone on the same page, you set up a big board in the main office where each team can pin their updates, ideas, and plans. This board is accessible to everyone, so as team members come and go, they can easily catch up on what's happening and contribute their thoughts.

Microsoft Loop in Teams works a bit like that board. It's a digital space where your team can brainstorm, create, and organize content together in real-time. By adding a Loop workspace to a Teams channel, everyone in the team can access and collaborate on shared projects, regardless of changes in team membership. This ensures continuity and keeps everyone aligned with the project's goals.

Just like the conference board, the Loop workspace follows certain rules and standards to ensure everything is compliant and secure. To start using it, you simply click the plus sign at the top of your Teams channel and select Loop from the app list. This makes it easy to integrate into your existing workflow, helping your team work more efficiently and effectively.
