How do I create a channel menu link to another Team?
Steven Collier,
Thanks for the response. I know the links at the top are typically used as tabs (opening the content in an iframe-type space below). I'm still hoping there's something I can put in the URL or something to make it work. There is an option in the "tabs" to open the current Team in SharePoint via a Web browser. So, I know links in the tab bar aren't completely restricted to opening in the below frame.
What we have is our core team, which acts like a hub for overlapping efforts involving higher levels of the company - sort of like having a local division team with all of the decisionmakers and file resources of a larger umbrella company offering shared services. So, rather than decentralize the team or put a bunch of links in separate channel folders, we were hoping to link the five other teams in the tabs and make them easy to get to within Teams.
I'm also noticing that the side menu/links for SharePoint sites don't show up in the Teams view in the below frame.
Maybe there needs to be another app/plugin that says "Team link" similar to the "Open in SharePoint" option. That would work for me.
As of now, if I open a link to another team from a Files folder within Teams, it still opens it in the Web browser. So, my choices are to open it in a browser or put it in the menu and have it open this page in the frame below the tab menu:
And if you click on "Launch it now", it doesn't do anything from within Teams.
- It could be called "Beam to Team". 🙂
