"Copy Link" to get URL to a folder in Teams does not always work properly - incorrect link copied
I have had mixed success copying the link of a FOLDER in a teams folder, and pasting it into a post. Since I often remove and upload new files, I don't like to link to individual files in my posts, ...
PeterRising - We are all working within Teams, so I don't want to send people to a SharePoint link (plus copying that link is not an option when I'm clicking on the Teams folder), so even if it were more reliable (it probably is), I wouldn't want to use it.
Now I see at if you OPEN a folder and go to the top there is a "Copy Link" which gives me both options. Perhaps that "Copy Link" command is more reliable than the one at the level above when you click on the "..." to the right of the folder itself.
When in the folder, the "Copy Link" URL looks like this:
https://teams.microsoft.com/_#/files/General? ...blahblahblah..%252FRoles%2520and%2520Responsibilities which is correct..
When outside the folder, selecting the folder, the "..." and "Copy Link", the URL looks like this:
https://teams.microsoft.com/_#/apps/...blahblahblah....thread.tacv2 and brings me to the top folder, which is incorrect.
At least I found a workaround - but maybe should be logged as a bug!
We have same issue in Microsoft Teams application. Looking forward for Microsoft to resolve this ASAP.
- We have noticed that when we use Copy Link from Teams (desktop and web) we do not have the option to select a Teams link.
The link that is proposed is to SharePoint.
We work in TEAMS all the time and until a week or so ago we could create a link to Teams so our users could stay in Teams.
Where has the Copy Link - Teams gone?- I noticed this same thing happened with one of our user recently. User is not getting Teams sharable link when try to click on "Copy Link" in teams Files but instead only get SharePoint sharable link only.
Before one week it was giving two option for sharable link Teams and sharepoint which in my Teams still is.
Only one user has seen this change so far.
Anyone one know why it is happening?AkshaySolanki1994
I've the some issue with "copy link" from Teams.
I've chance only copy link to sharepoint.
This issue I saw it in many users in my tenant but not all.
What I do to try resolve problem:
Issue not applicable endhost.
I logged account with this "bug" in teams and account without "bug" in clean instance host, but in both cases nothing has changed.
Account with "bug" no change and account without no change in the same device.
The only difference between accounts is their license:
Bugged account have to: E1
Account without: E3
I change license, but doesn't resolve the problem.
The problem is definitely in the user accounts, but i don't know what.
I've hybrid environment AAD- synced with on-prem AD.
I'm looking for information in roadmap from MS but i dont find it answer too.
Please help with issue, my users are impatient.
- It looks like this was 'resolved' by only providing a SharePoint link. I agree that it would be best for our users to be able to stay within Teams if they're already starting in Teams and the link refers back to Teams.
