Teams Chat - copy/paste

Anonymous

When in Chats in Teams we used to copy conversations and paste them into other docs. This brought across name/date and chat text.

Now when we do this it only brings across the text; name/date are missing. This causes issues for us as we cannot keep accurate records.

Has this facility been changed/withdrawn in an update? Is there a workaround?

    yes, and the work around only worked briefly for me using the web version and then stopped working. Same thing happened at home - worked briefly and then stopped.

    I've completely lost the ability of documenting conversations for my notes w/o taking twice as long to do it.

    Without the workaround, this really needs to be fixed. The Export API is overkill for grabbing a few messages.
