I have a use case where I would like to create a Channel/group tab, but from code -- not from the configure experience

Where?

  • user in in a channel and a Task is popped up (via custom iFrame)

  • user selects an item from this iFrame, and a new Tab is created in that channel, pointing (Deeplinking?) to that content

  • The channel may not have a Tab created; I can see how you get the current Tabs for a channel in microsoftTeams.js

(ie: microsoftTeams.getTabInstances(callback: (tabInfo: TabInformation),tabInstanceParameters?: TabInstanceParameters,))

  • but there is no mechanism either in microsoftTeams.js -or- Microsoft Graph to create a new Tab in that channel

I attempted to use

microsoftTeams.executeDeepLink(deepLink: string, onComplete?: (status: boolean, reason?: string))

with an appropriately formatted deepLink but it silently failed

My code works OK from the "configurableTabs": [ experience

Thoughts? Missing feature?

Or am I missing something?

Please take a look at Add Tab to channel using Graph API.
