Is there a method for downloading a video file sent via Teams Chat

Using the Teams App (windows) or the Teams App (Android)

I have a student who has sent me video of them completing an assignment via a teams chat. I can see no way to download this file directly or move it to oneDrive so I can document the learning. Most of the help docs on this talk about how to download a meeting recording...to be very clear it isn't that.

With everything else I can either hit the three dots and hit download, or it shows up in the "files" section of the chat. These videos don't have that option and don't register as files in the files section.

How can I get these files out of the Teams ecosystem and keep them?

    Hi Jon,

    Upon careful review, there is no option that lets you download or export videos that is shared or sent in team chat.

    I encourage you to provide feedback and suggestions through the Microsoft feedback portal, which will allow Engineers to take a look into it. The more votes and feedback about it it will be feasible in the future.

    Thank you for your understanding and for your time.

    Kind regards,
