Add tab to chat

Namespace: microsoft.graph

Important

APIs under the /beta version in Microsoft Graph are subject to change. Use of these APIs in production applications is not supported. To determine whether an API is available in v1.0, use the Version selector.

Add (pin) a tab to the specified chat. The corresponding app must already be installed in the chat.

Notes:

  • If the chat is associated with an onlineMeeting instance, then the tab is effectively added to the meeting.
  • If the app manifest for a given appId contains a static tab that matches the current scope (chat/groupChat), the static tab is pinned by default.

This API is available in the following national cloud deployments.
