Not allowing to browse Excel file by referring MS Team file links in angular web application

[VH_T1]

I have build angular web application and want to browse Excel file by referring MS Team file links. When we browse file link, open file dialog is not allowing to open the file location. Is this known issue? Is this not allowing because of security reason? Want to understand more details on why it is not working.

@HunaidHanfee-MSFT Yes, below are steps - 

1. Used Copy link option available in the MS Team Channels Files tab 

2. In angular application, we are using input control of type "file" to browse the files

3. On browse button '...' click, open file dialog is shown to select the file

4. Paste the copied link (step 1) in the folder top bar , highlighted in below snap 

5. It prompts below warning (You can't open this location using this program.)  

I hope this will help you to understand the issue. Let me know if you need additional details

@VH_T1 - It is not possible, even if you try to access the file directly from File explorer it will not find it. You can't access file like this. That link belongs to SharePoint and you are trying to access from local system and it will not find it.

Please have a look at this Working with files in Microsoft Graph 

Thanks,
