How to highlight app icon when open a deep link to Teams app static tab by adaptive card

Using the adaptive card to open a deep link to Teams app static tab by following https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/platform/concepts/build-and-test/deep-links-execution-handling?tabs=teamsjs-v2#adaptive-card,

 

Open Teams app tab successfully, but the app icon on the left sidebar is not highlighted.

The deep link is like: 

https://teams.microsoft.com/l/entity/${appid}/${entityId}?webUrl=${contentUrl}&context=${context}
 

But I found other Teams app like PowerBI, can highlight the app icon by open deeplick of adaptive card, how to do it?

    Can you please check the configuration of your deeplink, also are you observing this behavior in Teams Web or only desktop client?

      Thanks so much for your reply~
      This behavior happens both in Teams Web and desktop client.

       

      And I checked the ${appid} and the ${entityId} are both correct~

      Open Teams app tab successfully with the right link, but the app icon on the left sidebar is not highlighted.
      The deep link is like:
      https://teams.microsoft.com/l/entity/${appid}/${entityId}?webUrl=${contentUrl}&context=${context}

      This app i upload to our teams organization,

      For the https://teams.microsoft.com/l/entity/${appid}/${entityId}?webUrl=${contentUrl}&context=${context I used the id in the manifest.json, is it right?
