True or False: Once you convert a public channel to a private channel, you can switch it back to being public.

True
False
Only if you're an admin
Only for specific channels

The correct answer is: False

When a public channel in Slack is converted to a private channel, it becomes a private channel permanently. This means that once the switch is made to restrict access and visibility, there is no option to revert it back to public status. This design is intentional to maintain the integrity of private communications and prevent any unintended exposure of sensitive information that might occur if the channel were to revert to public access. The inability to switch back to a public channel applies universally, regardless of the role of the user, be they an admin or not. Since the distinction of channel privacy is a significant aspect of Slack's functionality, the platform enforces strict boundaries to protect the confidentiality of the private channel.
