Groups, channels and bots

Create a channel

In a channel only you and your admins post. Everyone else reads, views and reacts.

Create the channel

Choose New message, then New channel.
Enter the Channel name and, if you like, a description and a photo.
Turn on Public channel if anyone should be able to find it in Discover, and choose its Public link: 5 to 32 letters, numbers and underscores.
Choose Create channel.

Public channels need a confirmed email address. Private channels are joined only by invite link.

Post and pin

Write in the box at the bottom and choose Post. Posts are signed by the channel and show a view count. Owners and admins can pin up to 50 posts.

Choose your admins

In the channel’s details, make a subscriber an admin and choose what they may do: post, edit or delete other people’s posts, and add admins.
