Teams (SharePoint)

List Microsoft Teams and channels that the current user has access to. These examples use the SharePoint REST API.

Note: The SharePoint REST API provides limited team operations. For full Teams management (create channels, send messages, install apps, manage members), use the Microsoft Graph Teams API.
