Exploring the Transition in Microsoft Teams' Website Tab Feature

This change is driven by the desire to improve web security, privacy, and the reliability of the web content accessed through Teams. Despite this alteration, existing Teams tab apps like SharePoint won't be affected, which is a relief for users who rely heavily on these integrations for their daily operations.

The introduction of the Microsoft Lists form as a Teams tab through a News link from SharePoint remains a valuable workaround for the enhanced security measures. Users can continue to integrate critical external content into their Teams environment without disruption. This approach not only maintains the seamless user experience but also emphasizes Microsoft's commitment to providing secure and reliable solutions. As organizations adapt to these changes, the need for alternative integration methods like native apps for specific use cases becomes more apparent, ushering in a new era of how external applications are incorporated into Teams.

Starting July 2024, #MicrosoftTeams will be changing how the Website tab works in the new Teams client, opening the website link in a new browser tab (MC708500). However, this change wonโt affect pre-existing Teams tab apps, including SharePoint Online and thanks to a News link you can redirect users to the new Microsoft Lists form, displaying it as a Teams tab.
Here is how to:
- Create a new Microsoft Lists form and copy its sharing link
- Create a News link in your SharePoint Online site (users must have read access) and paste the URL of your Microsoft Lists form into the link box
- Add a SharePoint pages tab in a Teams channel with your News link URL

Microsoft has announced in the message center with the message ID MC708500 that the new Teams client will no longer support a website tab from the beginning of April. Starting April 2024, Microsoft Teams will be retiring the ability to load websites inside the new Teams client when using the Website tab. These website links will open in a new browser tab instead.
This is to better align with emerging best practices in web security and privacy while also improving the reliability of websites opened through this feature. Specifically, websites integrated in this way should then be opened in the web browser. The reason given for the change is increased security, reliability, and data protection.
This change has a massive impact on how third-party applications can be integrated into Teams. Previously, a quick workaround for applications without a native Teams app was the website tab. This meant that external sources that are important for the team could be integrated quickly and there was no media disruption when working. Now the only alternative, if available, is the native app for the corresponding use case.
