Hey brkcanada can you please clarify if the shared channel is shared with members in other tenant or everyone is from the same tenant?

The Contoso admin shared the channel with me and a two colleagues in our corp tenant (same tenant). So only Contoso admin and Softlanding me, two colleagues.

    brkcanada Is this SharePoint home page in the site of the shared channel, or some other site? Adding a tab pointing at SharePoint doesn't grant permissions (in any channel type).

      It is in the Contoso shared channel site. Issue arose when clicking the tab from Softlanding team app. I can navigate the site and content though (from Softlanding team) which is interesting so it succeeded inspite of the error when chosing my Softlanding account.

        Hey brkcanada can you please file a support ticket with exact steps to repro and the error you are encountering.

        So far my understanding the channel is shared between two tenants
        1) Contoso tenant - Home tenant where channel was created
        2) Softlanding tenant - Invitee tenant with which channel was shared

        When you access the SharePoint site directly from Softlanding tenant it works but when you access it via a tab app it gives you an error
