Copy link to task does not work in Teams

Hi,

 

we use planner as a tab in MS Teams channel but there does not work feature "Copy link to task". When I click on this feature, nothing will happen. When I use this feature directly in Planner website (https://tasks.office.com) it works correctly. What to do with it?

 

Thank you,

 

Mirek

    I had the same problem after I had changed standard browser to Google Chrome - when I changed back to Edge it works 🙂   Microsoft -< Microsoft 🙂

      I have tested it and it works already.

        Unfortunately, your observation is little better than https://www.teepublic.com/t-shirt/1096211-it-works-on-my-machine-funny-computer-programmer-d.

         

        I'll point it out, again.  From the Planner web page, copying the link works just fine.

        From the Teams/Planner add on tap, a 'Copy Link' only copies the subject line.

         

        To anyone who has had this experience and has some useful advice, I would be grateful if you would share it.

         

        If the collective wisdom is 'you already have your work-around', I'll stop wasting my time.

         

  • Yes, this is a known issue that I have to review if It have been solved...last time I tested, it didn't

      jcgonzalezmartin Do you know if this behavior will be changed? If the link will be available to be past in another clients? And for the graph? There will be a field with this url?

      I agree - it's deeply annoying. 

       

      However, there's been progress albeit, it's still wrong!

       

      Today (2 January 2019) I thought, let me try copying a link to a task card, perhaps they've fixed. Imagine my excitement when it actually did copy something!

       

      Off I went happily into the document where I wanted to place a link to this specific card. I duly clicked  the hyperlink and hey presto - disappointment. It took me only to the channel, not to the specific card.

       

      So, progress' (if you can call it that) but nothing usable at all. MS, if you're going to 'fix' the issue, why 'fix it' wrong like this? Link to an item is not the same as link to a channel...

       

      Please can you sort this out???

        I am having this behaviour now. A few weeks ago, all was working fine but now today I can't seem to link directly to tasks. Only the channel. Within Teams it is still working but I need to link within Sharepoint and that is no longer working now. Did you have any luck with this?
