Custom File Handlers in MS Team

[wumpus]

Hello!, 

We have been able to get custom file handlers registered and working for HTML files in SharePoint Online and OneDrive. But this capability seems to be missing in MS teams. 

I would like to achieve the same capability in MS teams where a user clicks on an HTML file and the file open in our custom editor. Haven't found a way to do that yet

@wumpus I agree. This is a must have feature. It just breaks the complete M365 offering of microsoft. Supporting one feature in Sharepoint and not in Teams, breaks the vendor created apps for custom file format.

@wumpus - Teams does not support custom file handles. Could you please raise a user voice here?

Hi Nikita, Thanks. I can see that being already one entry in the MS User Voice here : - https://microsoftteams.uservoice.com/forums/555103-public/suggestions/40574185-support-for-file-hand...

Do you have a tentative timeline for this missing capability in MS Teams?

Are there any alternatives/workarounds that you suggest, in the absence of Custom File Handlers in MS Teams?

@wumpus - We Don't have any ETA to share when it will be available.

@Nikitha-MSFT: Is there an update on this? We are seeing unexpected behavior where it is working for a certain user in the tenant but not working for other users. Is it something that is rolling out?
