Problems with MS Teams app for videocalls

Copper Contributor

Hello, everybody!

 

I am trying to build an app (webview) for MS Teams. It should show up on the right hand side of video calls.

 

I am basing on this repo: https://github.com/pnp/generator-teams/tree/main/packages/generator-teams

During development, I am using NGrok (which is the way that is documented), and uploading the ZIP file directly (via "Manage Apps" -> "Upload").

 

Everything was working great until March the 1st, where, in the version for Work or School, I started getting, when adding the app to the call (after uploading the ZIP file), the following error:

"Something went wrong when loading tab configuration dialog, please try again later" (screenshot attached).

A few considerations:
- I have checked my server logs, and there is no request made to the configuration tab URL
- If I open the configuration tab URL on my browser, it works
- I have tried disabling CORS, but nothing
- I have tried replacing the NGrok based URL with a "live" one. Also no luck

- It all stopped working suddenly for everybody in my team, without us having changed anything in the code base.

- I tried removing the "bots" and "staticTabs" sections in the manifest. No luck.

 

Could anybody help pointing me in the right direction? Thanks a lot in advance!

 

Here is the manifest.json file:
