Hello

Please I need your help on this issue.

Team owners are unable to create tabs on a team using the "make this a tab" context menu in the file library.

It works when using the + sign on the tabs menu.

The context menu gives the error "missing scope permissions on the request." https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/1188410/missing-scope-permissions-on-the-request-api-requi has several users reporting the same issue.

    Hi @Iniobong Nkanga

    It seems that the backend has changed compared to last week and many people are affected. You can try the following workaround as a workaround that you can use until the bug is fixed:

    Change to a different tab that is not a file storage tab. Then you can create a new tab using the plus sign on the tab bar.
