Steps to reproduce:

Receive an invite to a meeting from Teams.
Accept the entry to calendar.

Actual results:

Entry was created ok, but within the entry the meeting link is not available

While link is visible on the email, the link text ('click here') is visible also in the calendar entry, but link itself is not available

I can't reproduce this on Daily using the attached teams.eml and using "More > Save a copy" (I didn't want to respond to it).

However, I do have a suspicion for the cause of @avegaweiss's issue. The itipItem's descriptionHTML is

...
<br>
Haga clic aquí para unirse a la reunión
<a class=\"moz-txt-link-rfc2396E\" href=\"https://teams.microsoft.com/l/meetup-join/...\">
  &lt;https://teams.microsoft.com/l/meetup-join/...&gt;</a>
<br>
...

and the descriptionText is

...\nHaga clic aquí para unirse a la reunión<https://teams.microsoft.com/l/meetup-join/...>\n...

My guess is that for some reason the descriptionHTML is being ignored and the descriptionText is being used instead. Moreover, the link text <https://teams....> (instead of say https://teams...) is being stripped out of the description by sanitation because it looks like suspicious html.

I can't be sure though since I can't reproduce right now.

This is the event description that I see on Daily using the attached teams.eml and using "More > Save a copy".

I am seeing this issue in tb91 with ALL MS Teams invitations (win11 and latest ubuntu).

  • in the email: in the collapsed part:
    Microsoft Teams meeting
    Join on your computer or mobile app
    Click here to join the meetinghttps://teams.microsoft.com/l/meetup-join/19%3ameeting_nnnnnnnnn

  • in the TB non collapsed part:
    Click here to join the meeting (which is a hyperlink with the above link behind it)

  • in the TB google calendar stored invitation (possibly related bug 1659363 / bug 1727061 ??) in the description window:
    Click here to join the meeting (without a link behind it)

  • in the iOS stored calendar the link is shown.

  • on iOS the google calendar the link is gone as in the TB view

Please let me know if if is this issue, bug 1659363 / bug 1727061 , or if I should file a new issue for it. If you need more info, happy to provide it...

Thanks!!

My workaround: make sure I don't delete the mails... accept them, move them to a subfolder (otherwise if I accept them in iOS in parallel the email is deleted), and then hope I find the email to click on the meeting...

After last 2 updates, issue is still open.
Same results accepting an skype meeting

It's very annoying,,,,

Add a new file as a sampe from this case

Have a look at Bug 1727061 ... if its a google calendar issue it may be fixed in TB98 beta and they are looking for testers, see comment 58 in that bug https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1727061#c58

Is this with ANY calendar, or only google calendar? Either way, testing the TB98 beta would help.

My problem is in Google calendar, can't try in other formats.

Then this may be a dupe of Bug 1727061 ... please try TB98 as per comment 58 in that bug if possible and see if it is fixed in that version.

Hi!
I'm switching back to Thunderbird and I have this problem in TB 111.0b2.
I don't know if this help to investigate this problem, but I captured two screenshots of the event.

Event as shown in Thunderbird 111.0b2: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1v6XMepK-E5cnXZKJWLH-w9Su6Mq43QPB/view?usp=sharing

Event as shown in Google Calendar: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1lgNYlNlAuoA6lVwhS4cZOeQ9ZrkWfWWI/view?usp=sharing
Note: I switched Google Calendar to edit mode just because it's better to show the event contents (the normal mode is a very compact), but I did not edit the event.

If it is useful, I still have this event invitation's email.

Regarding my issue described in the comment #12 above,
I did a little experiment here: I opened the event in Gmail, edited it, and saved the event. The edition was as simple as just delete a black line.

Then, Thunderbird started showing correctly the event: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1sfoiEZal9hqEqNwwbqfUV4JwXZU7-Ldd/view?usp=sharing

Yet, I understand that this is not a solution because I'm not supposed to edit every single Teams invitation in my calendar

By the way, I updated Thunderbird from 111.0b2 to 111.0b3, but I bet this had nothing to do about the difference.

This is the same as Bug 1758438.
