That’s really handy for everyone in that channel to capture information. Here you can go in and create new pages like so, This should now begin to look more and more like OneNote. If you now select the ‘hamburger’ menu in the top left of the page you will see, You are now free to give your page a name and enter any notes into that page. You’ll also notice that you are placed into a OneNote style page below the menu. Now you should see a new menu item across the top matching the name you just gave OneNote (here, Meetings). Select the Save button when you have made your choice. You’ll then be asked to give the new tab a name.

That will display a new window, as shown above with all the items you can add to menu. To connect this Microsoft Team channel to OneNote press the ‘ +’ (plus) item on the menu. The reason is that OneNote connectivity is not added by default. What you don’t yet see in the Team channel is anything to do with OneNote. You’ll notice that I have already added a new tab to this channel (Polly) thanks to a bot I’ve inserted into this Team. If you now go to that Microsoft Team (in my case, called Help Desk), you will see the normal Conversations and Files tabs at the top of the only channel I currently have in the Team called General, like so: OneNote is arranged by sections, inside which are individual pages. If you open that notebook you’ll see that it is blank, as shown above.

To view it, simply select the link Notebook from the Quick Launch menu on the left of the SharePoint Team Site. That SharePoint Team Site contains a OneNote notebook which is known as a ‘site notebook’. When you create a new Microsoft Team you also get a new SharePoint Team Site as part of that. Many may not appreciate however that it is also a wrapper over one of other favourite products, OneNote. One of the ways that I describe Microsoft Teams to people is as a simplified and aggregated wrapper over things such as SharePoint Teams Sites and Skype for Business.
