Description
My Setup
- Operating System: Windows 10
- App Version: 3.1.0
- Installation type: exe
- I have tested with the latest version
- I can simulate the issue easily
Description
Now when you click right mouse button on any chats name in a Sidebar you can choose Copy link in context menu.
But that link for chat works only for web client version.
I suggest to add another option in context menu like Copy deeplink or Copy link for app with link like rocketchat://room?host=open.rocket.chat&path=channel/desktop
Current Behavior
User can copy only chat link for web client users
Expected Behavior
Users need ability to copy deeplinks from context menu in Electron application
Another way to implement that feature would be a users settings option how he or she like to get any links in context menu:
- Web client style
- Applications client style

Research direction
The issue names no files or tests. Start at the Electron application's sidebar chat context menu and the existing Copy link action; done means users can copy a deeplink for a chat from that menu, with the final link behavior matching the selected implementation.
