Join or Leave Channel

In Pumble workspace, everything happens in dedicated spaces called channels. Use channels to organize conversations about specific subjects, whether they are business related or not. You can browse and join existing channels in your workspace. Or create new channels to initiate communication with your colleagues on the desired subject and easily add them as participants.

What to anticipate

• It’s not possible to browse for private channels in Pumble (only member of that private channel can add you to it)
• Once you join the channel, you’ll automatically be included in the members’ list
• Notifications you receive in the channel depend on whether you mute them for that specific channel or not
• You can leave public and/or private channel whenever you please, and you can always rejoin the public one (i.e. You still need to be added back into Private ones by any current member of that channel)
• Owner and admins can turn off join and leave messages in public channels
