Create a link to open a Microsoft Teams chat to a specific person

Question

I'm trying to embed html code on a page that provides a link, that when clicked, opens a chat window with a specific user. I've tried the following code, but when clicked Teams opens and tries to get me to login again. I never get the chat window. Thoughts?

<a href="https://teams.microsoft.com/l/chat/0/0?users="[email protected]" 'target='_blank'</a>

<a href="https://teams.microsoft.com/l/chat/0/[email protected] 'target='_blank'</a>

Answer 1

both of your links are invalid. One of the following should work:

<a href='https://teams.microsoft.com/l/chat/0/0?users="[email protected]"' target="_blank">[email protected]</a>

<a href="https://teams.microsoft.com/l/chat/0/[email protected]" target="_blank">[email protected]</a>
