What would a productivity suite be without some keyboard shortcuts?

The most basic is: @ which is used to mention a person, channel or team. This will alert people to the message. Additionally, your admins can create custom @ tags and create special groups of members/channels to allow notification to selections of people that the standard @ list provides. 

/ Commands:  

Here are a few keyboard shortcuts which you can use in the big ‘search’ bar at the top of your teams window:
