'Copy Link' for Folder/Files does not work in Teams
When you access a document library using the website/SharePoint tab and click on 'copy Link' the dialog opens up and has a spinning circle constantly, doesn't load.
Great
It works for me as well!!!
Strange thing is mine updated 8th of june but only today it workedYesterday I thought, how can this still be possible as I had this issue for a very long period of time
(opening the Team in SharePoint the copy link always did work as workaround)
but happy now 🙂
Just noticed I'm having this problem today. I can't get the Link window to load when using the Teams client. I was able to go to Teams via Chrome and that let me generate the link without any issues. Tried closing and re-opening Teams client but that didn't help.
- My Org has the same issue with copy link on files or folders from within Teams.
The copy link completely stopped working in late Oct 2021 with the infinity spinning wheel, all the way until end Dec 2021. Since 2022 started, we've noticed that the copy link function worked again, but this time no longer gave an option to copy the Teams-based URL link. Instead, all copy links for folder or files, all point ONLY to SharePoint links with no option to choose Teams-based URL links.
Did Microsoft do this JUST to fix their shortcoming which occured when you renamed a team/channel name but the backend SharePoint site name remained unchanged?- Updated to 1.5.00.8070 - copy link to files still doesn't work. Clean installation of 1.5.00.8070 didn't help. I start to think that it is no Teams app-related issue - just some bug in the registy / OneDrive or sth like that. Teams worka stable. But it is a huge inconvenience, the lack of this feature.
