Describe the bug / error

While developing ACEs, we can get to know the device context using this.context.deviceContext.

The value of that should one of WebView, Mobile or TeamsDesktop based on where we access the ACE from.

This property gives the correct output when in browser (WebView) or in Teams mobile app (Mobile).

However, in Teams desktop app the value is WebView whereas, it should be TeamsDesktop.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Create an ACE using SPFx
  2. In the onInit method alert the property this.context.deviceContext
  3. Open the ACE in Teams desktop app

Expected behavior

In Teams desktop app the value of this.context.deviceContext should be TeamsDesktop.

@anoopt , sorry for our delay in answering. We indeed had some issues in our code that was reporting incorrect information but that should now have been fixed. Can you please check and see if the issue still exists?

Thank you @lucabandMSFT - Tested this with SPFx 1.15.0-beta.1, the value is correct on the initial load however if you navigate to a different area in Teams and open the Viva connections app, the value shows as WebView again.

Thanks you @anoopt , looking on the issue now. Also, one question. The "Viva Connections" app you are using is the one that comes out of the box from Teams app, right? it is not this one: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/viva-connections-desktop
