Make this channel Read Only (only channel admins can post)

Posts by Channel Admins Only

Capability to turn off post creation for guests & members (only Channel Admins and above can post)

  • Ensure that bots can still post to channels where guests & members cannot

  • Handle a large number of read-only users in the channel at the same time without performance issues

  • Disallow pinning of posts

  • Bots need to retain the ability to post in read only channels

As a System Admin, I want the ability to restrict posting/interacting to channel admins and higher in specified channels, so that I can create announcement channels.
