Add the following information:

* *Name* - channel name.
* *Channel type* - channel type.
  * *Public* - all users will be able to see and join the channel.
  * *Private* - users will be able to join the Channel only by invitation from the channel administrator (![Icon Channel Private](https://connect.accentservices.com/connect/docs/_images/icon-channel-private.png) icon indicates a private channel)
* *Subject* - channel subject.
* *Description* - channel description.
* *Manage Channel members* - add members to this Channel. Note that members can be added or removed from Channels at any time.

Click on **Save** to save changes.
