Due to the recent changes to OnStart and Start screen, does anyone have a process for creating a deeplink to a specific item in a screen in a Teams app? I do not have the app in a tab of a channel, but a standalone app that users install in Teams and is pinned on the lefthand bar. I have tried to use various video tutorials but an't seem to get them to work with the new updates in Powerapps.

I have also tried to find some documentation from Microsoft but so far I can only find docs related to apps in Teams Channels.

Any help appreciated.

What happens when you use a link created as shown in the example below?

https://teams.microsoft.com/l/entity/{AppID}/?webUrl=https://apps.powerapps.com/play/{AppID}&screen=DetailScreen&itemID=123

pls try the following:

utilize the App.StartScreen property and parameter functions to manage navigation - In the OnStart property of the app, capture the URL parameter - Set(varItemID, Param("itemID"));

Use the App.StartScreen property to determine the initial screen based on the parameter: - If(!IsBlank(varItemID), DetailScreen, BrowseScreen)

On the OnVisible property of DetailScreen, set the item to display - Set(selectedItem, LookUp(YourDataSource, ID = Value(varItemID)));
