[Rendering] IconURL: Catalog icons do not render on mobile device in secondary action

[Nivedipa-MSFT]

Copied bug from microsoft/AdaptiveCards#9289

Steps to reproduce

Target Platforms
Other, iOS

SDK Version
.

Application Name
Microsoft Teams

Problem Description
We would like to use the icon url feature in our adaptive cards. The icon is used in an Action.Execute with mode "secondary".

The icon renders fine on a desktop client. However, on a mobile device, the user can only see a grey rectangle.

With this issue, we can not rollout.

Can you please fix this?

🤖 AI-Generated Preliminary Analysis:

This is a known issue—FluentUI catalog icons in Adaptive Card actions (using "iconUrl": "icon:ArrowClockwise" with "mode": "secondary") do not render properly on iOS Teams mobile. Instead of an icon, you see a grey rectangle.

Status:
Microsoft has acknowledged and reproduced the bug. It is currently escalated to their engineering team and awaiting a fix.

Current Workarounds:

• Use "mode": "primary" for actions if icon visibility is critical.
• Avoid relying on icon color or image in "secondary" mode on mobile, or redesign those actions for now.
