Abstract
Hosted communication channels associated with a communication platform are described. In an example, a user can utilize communication services available via a communication platform. In some examples, a first organization can invite a second organization to join a communication channel. The two organizations can be different such that they are associated with different organization identifiers and are associated with different permissions. In some examples, content associated with each organization can be private, such that other organizations cannot access content that is owned or otherwise managed by each organization. However, content posted to shared communication channels can be accessed, viewed, interacted with, or the like by any member of the shared communication channels. To address privacy and/or security concerns, some organizations or users of the communication platform may desire to control how end users that join a shared communication channel interact with the shared communication channel.
