executeDeepLink or app.openLink not working on Teams Android App

[tiennguyen1293]

I defined a URL to redirect to Chat Tab

https://teams.microsoft.com/l/entity/0/0?context={"chatId":"19:[email protected]","contextType":"chat"}

and use executeDeepLink for Teams SDK v1 and app.openLink Teams SDK v2 but it's just working on Teams Desktop App and Teams IOS App.

// Deeplink to chat tab
  function deeplinkConversation1() {
      microsoftTeams.app.getContext().then((context) => {
          let taskContext = encodeURIComponent(`{"chatId": "19:[email protected]","contextType":"chat"}`);    
          microsoftTeams.app.openLink("https://teams.microsoft.com/l/entity/0/0?"+"&context="+taskContext);
         
      })
  }

Teams Android Version: 1416/1.0.0.2024193102

@tiennguyen1293 - Thank you for reporting this issue. We will test this issue in Android and raise bug.

@tiennguyen1293 - We checked this at our end in Teams web client and Android client. We used the function you shared above by changing the chat id. It's working in web client but is giving "The tab doesn't exist" popup in Android. Do you also see a similar popup or clicking on button does nothing in Android.
