Posted on by luisafrancoj95

Hello,

I'm encountering an issue with the copy function in a SharePoint Form app. It works well within SharePoint Online, but when I use it in the list within Teams, it shows an error: "Failed copying text to clipboard."

Upon reviewing the documentation, I noted that the copy function isn't supported with embedded apps.

I'm looking for a solution to enable copying to my clipboard while using the Teams List View.

Thank you!

Sadly you cannot do that.
But you can do the following things:
1. Set the text to a text input
2. Provide a download of like converting the text to a .txt file or CSV
3. Use powerAutomate to send the text to a certain user

Thank you !
Do you know if any option exists to select the text automatically and the user only needs to press ctrl + c?

yes there is
imagine TextInput1 is the text input
in the Default Property add a variable like inputText
Now in the behavior property add this code
UpdateContext({inputText:"This is the text"}); SetFocus(TextInput1)
the SetFocus() function will do the trick
