Send a message to a user with tab app url
I built a tab app in teams, which include approval workflow feature. Then i need to send notification message to some users, for example approval notification, which include approval url that can navigate to the certain page with some parameters.
How could i do this in teams?

- Thanks for your reply. I just tried the approach in the article, but i am really confusing that, how to find the entityId for my tab app. and i copied the url link from my teams as below
https://teams.microsoft.com/l/entity/1422308d-2684-4c7e-ac52-3f37889e2917/_djb2_msteams_prefix_2718689232
where is the uuid followed by entity from(can't be found in the manifest)?
what's the meaning of _djb2_msteams_prefix_2718689232 ? how to find it?- Meghana-MSFT
Entity id is the ID of the tab, which you provided when configuring the tab. Please refer this table in the doc - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/platform/concepts/build-and-test/deep-link-application?tabs=format1%2Cteamsjs-v2%2Cformat2%2Cspecific%2Cformat3%2Cformat4%2Cformat5#:~:text=The%20ID%20of%20the%20tab%2C%20which%20you%20provided%20when%20configuring%20the%20tab.%20When%20generating%20a%20URL%20for%20deep%20linking%2C%20continue%20to%20use%20entity%20ID%20as%20a%20parameter%20name%20in%20the%20URL.%20When%20configuring%20the%20tab%2C%20the%20context%20object%20refers%20to%20the%20entityId%20as%20page.id.
