Get refresh token of Teams Desktop of the current user
The Teams client must store access and refresh tokens somewhere (probably encrypted in the local or session storage of the underlying browser) I am wondering, if there is a way to read those tokens,...

Nivedipa-MSFT Thanks for your feedback.
I am and was always aware that its not a good practice to use a refresh token for my use case.
However, what I need to do is not available in the Graph.
I want to add a cloud storage (or add document library) to a teams channel (no tab!), that users can navigate to it easily from within the channel.
That's currently not supported with the Graph, only via the unofficial teams API.
To call this API, I need always a user context (no client credential flow possible)
So I am forced to a bad practice if I want to do what I need.
So yes: Its a bad practice
But no: A "good practice" seems not to exist here.
