Hi,

A college recorded and sent a short video clip in Teams chat. The clip was recorded by a mobile device directly from the recording function in Teams chat: Send a video clip in Teams - Microsoft Support

I can view the video clip the Teams chat, but I want to download the file. The file is not in the "file" tab in the chat.

How can I download the video file from the chat?

Thank you!

    I also have a similar problem. To summarize, a work related video was recorded (using their phone) in another part of the hospital. It was sent to me using Teams. I cannot download or save it to my computer. I need this video for work I am doing. Thanks!

    Yes, apparently downloading video clips is "not supported." See below. They (the "video clips") are stored online and they don't let you access them.

    Hi folks,

    I found another workaround since I can't install a screen recorder on my work PC, and it works as long as whoever sends it can send the file as a standard file attachment, not media.

    I was able to test this sending a screen recording from a mobile device through the mobile app by saving the video in my iPhones Files, then selecting the paperclip attachment option, not media attachment. Sending as a file gives me the receiving user on a PC the same 3 dots and Download option described in an earlier response.

    Hope this helps whoever comes next! Thanks for the previous responses, it gave me this idea.
