Abstract

The present disclosure is related to virtual spaces, such as channels, of a communication platform. In some cases, a channel may be designated as a private channel, which may permit access to the private channel by only users joined to the channel and may restrict/prevent access by all other users. The present disclosure is related to solutions for changing the private channel to a public channel, which may allow additional user accounts that were not associated with the private channel to discover and/or access the converted channel.
