How to Access the URL app history for the third-party applications on teams?

Anonymous

I am a student who was using an app called Aakash iTutor on Teams to take a test. Unfortunately, I had to close the window for some reason, which caused my Teams to close as well. Now, I am unable to access the test window again because the web address has changed. Can you please guide me on how to find the same URL from history so that I can resume the test?

If you need to access the URL of a third-party application like Aakash iTutor on Microsoft Teams, especially if you've closed the window and lost the link, you can try the following methods to retrieve the URL from your browser history or Teams app Nakshatra:

Method 1: Check Browser History Open Your Browser History: If you were using a browser to access Teams, you can check the browser history. In most browsers, you can press Ctrl + H (Windows) or Command + Y (Mac) to open the history. Search for the App Name or URL: Look for entries related to "Aakash iTutor" or the URL you used. Retrieve the URL: Once you find the URL, click on it to reopen the test window.

Method 2: Access Teams Activity History Open Microsoft Teams: Launch the Teams app on your desktop. Go to Activity: Click on the Activity tab on the left sidebar.
