@byungheesohn, It sounds like you're working on a complex project with multiple servers and a need for user-specific server access. Using the "Task Module" with startTask() in Microsoft Teams can indeed be a solution for your requirement to provide a screen for URL input and ID/PW input without another server hosting.

By default, Task Modules in Teams are designed to open as modal dialogs, which include the Teams UI elements.
Unfortunately, there isn't a built-in way to completely remove these UI elements to create a true full-screen experience within the Teams app itself.

One potential workaround could be to use a combination of deep linking and custom tabs. You can create a custom tab that hosts your web app and use deep links to navigate users directly to this tab. While this won't remove the Teams UI elements, it will allow you to provide a more integrated and seamless experience within the Teams environment.
