Microsoft Teams is a tool where we can collaborate with each other, sharing files, schedule a meeting, communicate with the user, etc.

Login to your SharePoint Online -> Go to Admin Center -> Click on Teams -> Next it will appear a new screen where you can able to create a Team.

Once you click on Create Teams, it will ask to create it from scratch or create it from an existing group.

Here I have selected Build a team from Scratch, once you click on this, it will appear a new page where you have to set what kind of team you want.

Here I selected Public. So next it will ask you to provide the name of your team.

Next click on the finish button to create your new Teams. It will take a few 40 seconds to create and again it will ask you to Add members in your team.

In the above screen, if you can see, I have added one external user in the end. So you have provided external user Email id if you want to add. Once you click on Add, again it will ask you to set the permission.

Now My team successfully created and there is a default channel called General. This is the default channel that will come in each team. So you have to create a new one as per your requirement. So here I have created two new channels.
