How can I download a video clip that was recorded and sent in Teams chat?

I can put a image-file in the Teams chat and I can download it from there.

I can put a text-file in the Teams chat and I can download it from there.

I can put a video-file in the Teams chat, but I can't download it from there.

This has nothing to do with Teams-video-chat recordings.

Please kindly add this feature in your Teams app, thanks.

Juho.

Thank you!

I still not find something that works, unfortunately.

Please note that I do not have a problem with downloading records of Teams meeting, which the links you send mainly are describing. I manage to download meeting records and other videos without any problem.

The issues I am facing is only related to video clip recorded by my college with a mobile device directly from the recording function in Teams chat: Send a video clip in Teams - Microsoft Support and shared in the Teams chat. It seems like the file of the video clip works differently, but I can't find the location the file is stored, and are still not able to download the file.

This worked for me and was a different path to download a shared video clip in Team chat than normal.

Usually, a clip appears in chat in its own box with a file name and the "three dots" options menu is included, which gives you the option to download (image reference attached).

Sometimes, however, the clip just appears as a playable video within Teams directly, rather than as a file or attachment. Not sure what causes the difference, but when this viewable video clip format appears instead, the only way I found to actually download it (since the menu is not present, nor the download option), is to follow Steven's advice, which was as follows (on an Android phone, at least):

1. Use the mobile app version
2. Open the Teams chat
3. Press and hold the image of the video
4. A menu pops up from the bottom with two options: Share Video or Message Options
5. Choose the Share Video option and it will access your phone's shareable routes. For me, I have Google Drive set up on my phone, so I was able to "share" the video directly to it, which, in essence, downloaded the video as a file.

This is a ridiculous workaround, but it does indeed work.

I'm not sure why some videos appear as a file and can be played or downloaded, while others appear as a playable video only, with limited options, but here we are.

Hey, you can download it when you use the mobile version of Teams and share through the usual channels.

Hope this is of any help.

I'm not sure how much more slowly we have to type so you can understand.

The link you provided explains how to save a Teams meeting recording.

As noted above, "It is not a recording of a meeting, but a video clip recorded by my college in the video function in the Teams chat (add -> media -> camera -> video)."
