Namespace: microsoft.graph

Important

APIs under the /beta version in Microsoft Graph are subject to change. Use of these APIs in production applications is not supported. To determine whether an API is available in v1.0, use the Version selector.

Restore an archived channel. Unarchiving restores the ability for users to send messages and edit the channel. Channels are archived via the channel: archive method.

Unarchiving is an asynchronous operation; a channel is unarchived when the asynchronous unarchiving operation completes successfully, which might occur after this method responds.

Note: An archived channel that belongs to an archived team cannot be unarchived. Unarchive the team before you unarchive the channel; otherwise, the request fails.

This API is available in the following national cloud deployments.

Global service	US Government L4	US Government L5 (DOD)	China operated by 21Vianet
✅	✅	✅	✅

Permissions

Choose the permission or permissions marked as least privileged for this API. Use a higher privileged permission or permissions only if your app requires it.

Permission type	Least privileged permissions	Higher privileged permissions
Delegated (work or school account)	ChannelSettings.ReadWrite.All	Not available.

Response

If unarchiving is started successfully, this method returns a 202 Accepted response code. The response contains a Location header that specifies the location of the teamsAsyncOperation that was created to handle the unarchiving of the channel in a team. Check the status of the unarchiving operation by making a GET request to this location.
