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!

    Can confirm, this method worked... Well it's technically a variant, because long pressing the video did not give me a share option. When I tapped on the video to play it, though, the player has an option to share. I tried an sms share but the phone says NO incompatible. So I tried again with Gmail and was able to send to myself.

    So I'm short, I did not have a long press option to share, but if:

    1. I play the video
    2. Default video player opens
    3. Video starts playing
    4. As play starts, I get a share icon on the upper right corner
    5. Was able to share by email; but not other means like SMS
    6. Emailed to myself then downloaded to phone.

    Voila. PITA, thanks Microsoft. More like Macrohard.

    I found that if you open the Teams chat online through a browser there is an option to download the video.

    You replied about a recorded meeting. If you read the question it’s about video in chat. Don’t answer the question if you don’t know.
