Can I split a Teams group once created and if I do will it keep the same content that has already been uploaded in both Tes groups?

I originally created 2 Teams groups for classes I deliver however I put two classes together rather than separate. I am looking to split the teams group into to two separate classes but was wondering if the content that has already been uploaded will move as well to the new class?

Any advice on this matter would be greatly appreciated

    Hello Patrick, My name is Indhurani, I’ll be happy to help you today.

    Unfortunately, it is not possible to split a Teams group once it has been created. Any existing content that has been uploaded to the group will remain in the original group and will not be moved to the new groups. However, you can copy any content that you would like to use in the new groups.

    If you want to use the same data, channels, and settings from an existing team to create a new team, you can make a copy and then choose how your new team is organized and set up. For more information: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/crea...

    Hope it helps you. Please let me know if you still need further assistance.

    Regards,

    Indhurani

    Unfortunately, it is not possible to transfer assignments that have already been uploaded to a team to a new group once the new group has been created. You will need to manually upload the assignments to the new group.
