Create a Team from an existing Team - SharePoint site Error is this by design?

We are seeing an error when you create a team from an existing team and click on any channel > Open in SharePoint. At first I thought that something was not working, but then I tested further by adding a document in a channel and then clicking > Open in SharePoint and the URL to SharePoint worked. I'd like to know if this is by design since in theory when you copy a Team the content doesn't come over. Can someone confirm? ChrisHoardMVP would you happen to know?

    The tabs are copied but the Tabs are not setup to point to the correct location, you have to go through each tab and set it up again. A bit of a half thought out function if you ask me as it isnt really a copy as you cannot use it once copied. 

     

    We just did a project where we wrote some powershell using an Azure App and the Graph API to do this properly. 

     

    Hope that helps
