hi -
Is there a way to stop Members from being able to upload files to a Teams channel?
Reason: I want to force members to edit a single version of a file, but can foresee many people uploading their own versions from their own files.
thanks

RE: MS Teams
Hi James,
This isn't possible as it goes against the who idea behind teams.
However...
These may be approaches which deal with your concern:
- If you are keeping files in your teams shared space then you can always refer to that file and keep your versions under control
- following on from the above you can add that specific file to one of the team tabs - this makes the file super obvious and easy to find
- If you're not using the team shared space then you can share out from a personal 365 shared file via the link - and you can also control the edit permissions on that
- if you have the file on a shared drive not manged through 365 then I think you can create a link to the file but that would need to testing to cope with your specific setup. You may end up sharing a file path rather than a link
I hope that was useful. Please let me know if you need anything else.
thanks
Claire
