Email Signature with Chat with me on TEAMS doesn't go directly to me
Hi All, a coworker and I are driving ourselves crazy with this. We have added the hyperlink in our email signature https://teams.microsoft.com/l/chat/0/0?users=%3cl<myemail.com>%3e and it opens up a TEAMS link but not our personal ones. Therefore the person would still have to type in our names. We have searched high and low and cannot find out what the issue is. I thought maybe we had to add ourselves as a Contact in TEAMS but you cannot do that. So my question is...why would this hyperlink bring someone to TEAMS but not to my TEAMS chat with my name already started? Thx!
- kaavenBrass ContributorHi, you don't need some of the parts there. try a link similar to this:
https://teams.microsoft.com/l/chat/0/0?users=email address removed for privacy reasons- kaavenBrass ContributorI did some testing and it works in the Teams app both for internal and external email adresses.
But it don't work in the teams webapp, I haven't tested mobile yet. But I'll do some extended testing later.
