URL shortener
I tend to share urls for documents that are in Team channels in chats, in planner, and for documenting work in meeting minutes.
I would REALLY like to have a url shortening option to do this.
If there is a workaround (outside of going to an external site) it would be great.
If I am using teams non-intuitively, I´d also be open to suggestions.

- Sink is a sophisticated URL shortener designed to streamline the process of managing and sharing web links. Unlike traditional URL shorteners that only condense lengthy web addresses, Sink offers an array of features that enhance usability, customization, and analytics. Users can create short, easy-to-share links with personalized aliases, making them more meaningful and memorable.
In addition to basic URL shortening, Sink provides robust analytics to track the performance of each shortened link. Users can access detailed reports on click statistics, including the number of clicks, geographical locations, referrer sources, and time-based trends. This data is invaluable for marketers and content creators who need to measure the effectiveness of their campaigns and optimize their strategies accordingly. - rebrand.ly is another good option for URL shortening.
I agree it would be nice if there was something "in the box" for this or if we could nominate a shorting service like bit.ly or rebrand.ly asantimarti you can use https://en.msteams.link for generate a short link and a QR Code of your Teams meeting.
- Is msteams.link a third party or is it Microsoft? Is there a TEAMS plugin to shorten links?

Hi,
There is a uservoice request for URL shortener that is under review, so that feature might come. Vote for it.
https://microsoftteams.uservoice.com/forums/555103-public/suggestions/33010897-url-shortener-for-teamsThere is multiple services for short URL where you just paste the long URL and get a short one instead, but there is no integration Teams what I know about. I use bit.ly but there is plenty of others.
I agree with the URL shortener. I am trying to use Lists to keep track of tasks for my channel, and the list will not accept a link.
