Is there a way to change the browser links will open up to?

[adriandelgg]

Whenever I click a link, it will open it up on my external default browser the OS has chosen.

However, I would like to be able to set which browser it will open up to.

Is there a way to change this? It currently opens on Brave, but would like for it to open on Microsoft Edge.

You can use --defaultURLHandler argument. But remember this will not work in sandboxed packages like flatpak or snap as they restrict access to /usr/bin or other system folders. If you're on native deb or rpm:

teams-for-linux --defaultURLHandler google-chrome will launch external links in google-chrome. Replace google-chrome with your binary of choice. If things are working well you can add this setting to config.json or have it in .desktop file as argument itself.

I'm using the native packages. Thank you! :)

Where is the config.json file located? I looked in .config/teams-for-linux but didn't see it there.

Also, the tip you gave works. I tried it when launching from the terminal and it was successful.

It will not be there by default. You have to create.

touch .config/teams-for-linux/config.json or which ever way you prefer. Have an entry like below.

{
"defaultURLHandler": "google-chrome"
}
