My Custom App (which links to an Angular App Url), and it's custom tab configuration page work fine in Teams Browser App both as an iframe contentUrl and websiteUrl.

However, when I go to the Teams Desktop App I can see the Custom Tab but when pressed nothing appears and no error messages.

I can remove the Custom Tab on the Desktop App. When I go to add it again I can see my App in the list but when I select it, I get a blank configuration page; just shows the top row with logo and "About" and bottom row with "Post to the channel about this tab" check box and "Back" and "Save" buttons.

We're on MS 365 Business Standard.

    Please find attached the manifest (Json) downloaded from the App Studio.

    @LaljiGami : We couldn't repro this issue. Could you please host your webpage or project on ngrok and share url?

    @Lalji Gami , After you host it on ngrok, please share the manifest again. This will help us to repro it on our side.
