Hi everyone, I am trying to find a way to create a 'link' between 2 List tabs within Microsoft Teams. The intended result is that when the user clicks a link/button it automatically 'opens' a List Tab within Teams (and if possible, prompts user to create new item, with some information - such as title - being auto-filled). I was using a URL link to the second List Tab, however I have just discovered that when the link is clicked within the Teams List Tab it doesn't change the Tab on the users app - it only works if you click the link when accessing the list on SharePoint. Does anyone know how I can create a link/button that will open Teams Tab 2 when the user clicks on it inside of the Teams Tab 1?
I think you're going to have to use deep linking for this one. Deep links allow you to choose the context in which a list item opens. There's an example of opening a list item in its Teams tab at https://chasestreet.dev/2021/03/21/direct-deep-links-to-list-items-in-teams/. If you create a URL column or a column that holds a button for each list item, you should be able to create a deep link URL that will take you to another list in another tab.
Alternatively, you could set up a button with a form that creates a new list item in the other list, using a process like https://chasestreet.dev/2021/03/30/add-a-button-to-a-teams-list-to-trigger-a-flow/
