Known issues

Problem: If you created a team from a custom template that contained additional custom tabs, you might see blank tabs in place of your custom tab apps. Your default tabs (such as Posts, Files, and Wiki) will appear as expected.

Solution: To fix this issue, remove the custom tab and add a new tab with the same app. If you don't have permissions to remove the custom tab and add a new tab, contact the team owner for assistance.

We're currently working on a fix for future teams created from custom templates.

Problem: When you use Teams in the browser, some websites don't support being rendered within a Teams tab.

browser error message.

Solution: If you have trouble viewing the contents of the website tab, you'll be redirected to either open the tab in a separate webpage, or open Teams in the desktop app instead to view your website tab app.
