I'm wondering if it is possible to export conversations in Teams?  Also I'm just having trouble organizing my Team chats and finding messages from more than a month or two ago?  Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks

    Is there a way to easily select an entire conversation? I find that it keeps dropping as I am highlighting and scrolling a long conversation.

    Hello All, 

    Recently, our related team had released the Teams Export APIs which allows us to export 1:1 and group chat messages. For details, please check here. If possible, you can use those APIs to try to export the chat messages.

    And currently, there is no ETA for the feature exporting messages from Teams chat. Thanks for your understanding and patience. We will keep monitoring here. 

    For the manual way, we can copy the entire chat messages in segments, then paste them to Text-based application, like Notepad, Word, etc. Or use the snipping tool to capture the screenshots of the chat messages. 

    Please do take care, friends. 

    Regards,

    Rudy

    It is possible to highlight all the conversation chat and messages, right click, select copy and pasted into whichever application you need.

    I don't understand this response. Are you saying it is possible to highlight an entire conversation? If so, how? I don't think clicking "copy" highlights the entire conversation and your message doesn't provide any other guidance.

    Dont forget that you must have an E3 or E5 to do this! As usual, microsoft make all of their products 65% functional with a side of a migraine.
