Imagine you're working in an office and someone hands you a document with a sticky note attached. The note says, "For more details, see the original file in the filing cabinet." If you have access to that filing cabinet, you can go straight to the original document to see all the context and additional information. This is similar to a new feature in Microsoft Teams where, when someone forwards a message, you can click a link that takes you directly to the original chat or channel. This is only possible if you have permission to view that original conversation.
This feature helps streamline communication by allowing you to see the full context of a forwarded message without having to ask for more details or explanations. It's like being able to go straight to the source document rather than relying on summaries or second-hand information. However, just like you need access to the filing cabinet to see the original document, you need access to the original chat or channel in Teams to use this link effectively. This ensures that only those who are meant to see the original conversation can access it, maintaining privacy and security.
