'Copy Link' for Folder/Files does not work in Teams

When you access a document library using the website/SharePoint tab and click on 'copy Link' the dialog opens up and has a spinning circle constantly, doesn't load.

    Great

    It works for me as well!!!
    Strange thing is mine updated 8th of june but only today it worked

    Yesterday I thought, how can this still be possible as I had this issue for a very long period of time 

    (opening the Team in SharePoint the copy link always did work as workaround)

    but happy now 🙂

jcgonzalezmartin So the above is using the desktop application and have tried it in a browser too (Edge Chromium).

 

To clarify, this is a SharePoint webpage, with a quick link to a document library then viewing the document library that way. Is it a limitation of viewing it via a 'website' tab in Teams?

Henry Edwards jcgonzalezmartin Did you ever find a resolution (or cause) for this? I have a user experiencing this issue for a Team/SharePoint library.

    JamesKearns We started seeing this problem on the week starting 5th July. There appears to be an issue obtaining sharing links from SharePoint Online via the Document Library tab in Teams. Our workaround was to swap out the Document Library tabs for Website tabs. After that the Copy Link functionality worked as expected.
