Sharepoint list links to custom view not working on Teams tab with a sharepoint page

Your default view is going to show in the URL like so....
https://yourdomain.com/sites/mysite/list/mylist/AllItems.aspx
Other views show up with a view ID at the end of that url such as
https://yourdomain.com/sites/mysite/list/mylist/AllItems.aspx?viewid=D15e0%2D41b6%2Dac00%2D1eb07e974...
What you need to do is get the view URL without all that GUID junk at the end and to do this its very simple. Lets say I have another view named "My Reports". All you have to do is replace the AllItems with the view name of the one you want to show.
https://yourdomain.com/sites/mysite/list/mylist/My%20Reports.aspx?
The %20 is expressed as a space to the browser so the browser reads it as My Reports.
Now, to add this to teams, create a new tab and select the new "lists" app. Select save to finish adding it to the channel. Once its been added, a configuration screen will come up. Choose the option to use an existing list then in the URL add your URL you built for that view.
https://yourdomain.com/sites/mysite/list/mylist/My%20Reports.aspx?
That's it! It should now show your list in that view. Please let me know if you have any questions.

After created your different views
Go to your list> click on Settings> List settings > scroll down and Click on one view you want to add as "filtered view"
Now, at the top, you will see an URL with "your name list".aspx
That's the URL you have to use.
Go to Teams >Channel > Add List > Select "Existing List" > Past your URL into "SharePoint" URL
NOTE: Replace space by "%20"
- nemegeermJun 15, 2023Copper ContributorAnything new on this ? I still have trouble when I have a SharePoint page with links on this page that go to a "non-default" view. Clicking the link of the view always goes to the default view.
- HodgePodge47Oct 11, 2023Copper ContributorGaet_W's solution worked for me. (thank you!!)
Going to the View settings and selecting the view-specific URL found on that page under "Web address of this view", then creating a new tab in the Teams channel for a List, THEN inserting that URL manually in the Existing List selection page (rather than picking a list) allowed my preferred view to appear in that tab, in spite of having another tab showing the default view of that same list.
This also worked for adding a different view from the same list.
Make sure you're following the instructions exactly. Assuming you haven't already figured it out, given it's been months since your response.
