Hello,

In Skype we have option that is all the conversations that we ever had will be stored in outlook. We can search and retrieve the info whenever we needed. Do we have something like that in MS Teams ?

Thanks in advance

    @Nithin Shankar ,

    Teams chat messages are located through eDiscovery.

    You can conduct an eDiscovery investigation with Microsoft Teams content by this article: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/compliance/get-started-core-ediscovery?view=o365-worldwide.

    For more details, please refer to https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/ediscovery-investigation.

    Chat data is stored in Azure (Cosmos DB), with copies inside your Exchange mailbox for compliance purposes. The folder where it is stored (Team Chat) is not exposed in Outlook/OWA though. Read more here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/location-of-data-in-teams
