Export chat from a Teams meeting

Please can  you tell me how to export a chat that went on during a 4 hour teams meeting? It is too long to copy and paste screen by screen and I need to be able to copy it into a word document. Control A doesn't work and neither does holding the mouse down and trying to copy it all.

Thanks.

    Hi, Davin, have you come across a way to send an entire chat thread to Outlook? I was able to select just a line, as you show, and send it to outlook, but I'm hoping for the entire chat. TIA!

    Hi Abigail

    I've found a way! Although someone referred to a meeting not in a channel?! I didn't see you mention that yours was outside of a channel, but if so this probably won't work sorry!

    In the Channel, in Posts, you have the meeting:

    Hover over the 3 dots highlighted and the emojis appear and another 3 dots. Click those 3 dots.

    Then select Share to Outlook.

    I thank you!
    Davin

    Thanks Eric. It is so frustrating. I feel like I am in the '90s trying to copy and paste the discussion string out of a meeting discussion. easier to do on a private chat.

    Unfortunately, this doesn't work for meetings that happen outside of a teams channel. I know, I have tried repeatedly, and the only option that works is a really labor intensive copy and paste process.
