'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 🙂

Think I've found the solution... I was using the document library app, however if you click on the SharePoint app, then you select the document library that you want, the experience is just like in sharepoint. And the copy link works.

Hi @Henry, I'm not following you completely what you mean with 'document library app' and 'SharePoint app'.? Can you explain what you mean with this?

    Florisz Hi. 

    Apologies, it was a quick update, hopefully this will be clearer.

    When you go to add an tab, I was using the Document Library Tab I think (Have just tried to use this and it works now), However continue for a better experience. 

     

    I then tried it with the following app, it works using this app:

    And you get a better experience:

     

    Hope that helps

      Hi Henry, this workaround works for me. Thanks.
      1. is there a way to set the 'Documents' tab on by default for all the Teams that I have on teams?

        Hi, have you tried the alternative way to add a document library above? Does it work with that app?
