"Open tab in PWA" no longer works [Regression/Bug]
In builds prior to 105.0.1320, I could move normal tabs from my browser to the PWA, if an App was installed. For example, if I open a Google Doc in my browser and want to send it to the Google Doc A...
I'm no longer seeing this behavior in Canary. Are you still experiencing it?
josh_bodner I can confirm the bug still exists in 105.0.1339
Key thing to note is that the popout to PWA works if you're at the root domain (i.e., https://www.office.com/launch/wordor https://docs.google.com).
But, if you've actually opened a document in a tab (i.e., https://onedrive.live.com/edit.aspx or https://docs.google.com/document/d/) it will fail to give the option to move that document from a browser tab to the PWA.
I definitely know the google docs option worked in past builds of Edge. And, I believe Office did as well, though I never used the Office PWAs consistently enough to remember definitively.
- If this is something that worked in the past but no longer does, then I agree it definitely sounds like a bug. I'll let the team know!
josh_bodner correct, it used to work on subdomains of Google Workspace or Office Docs links and I used it frequently.
