    Affected Service: Microsoft Teams

    Specifically, users attempting to access SharePoint lists through
    Teams on iOS may receive an access permissions error stating: “Permission

    and list links by manually copying the impacted URLs from the Teams chat to open
    them elsewhere. Additionally, users with access to alternative Microsoft Teams
    access methods such as the Microsoft Teams desktop client and web app can use
    these to avoid impact.
