We would like to do a monthly summary of a Team Chat. How can we do this automatically?

Dear Gill Heppel,

Good day! Thank you for posting to Microsoft Community. We are happy to help you.

After thorough research and consulting, it has been determined that there is currently there isn't a built-in way within Microsoft Teams to automatically generate a monthly summary of a chat. The only option is that you can manually export the chat history for a specific timeframe (e.g., monthly) using the "Export chat" option in Teams; and then review the exported chat history and create a summary document highlighting key points, decisions, or action items.

There may be another way to achieve this using Microsoft Power Automate Flow to create automated workflows that triggers at the beginning of each montha and Sends the report to designated recipients; Setting up a Power Automate flow requires some technical expertise, so if you choose this option, I suggest you post in Microsoft Power Automate community at Microsoft Power Automate Community - Power Platform Community or Power Automate - Microsoft Community Hub; I am sure that our experts from that team can address your query effectively and accurately.

We apologize if we are not able to meet your requirements; however, thank you for bringing this to our attention, we will surely raise your concerns to our Product Team and hopefully this can be considered in the future updates.

Moreover, I would like to invite community members and MVPs in the forum to share their knowledge or any third-party workaround and insight on this topic. 

In the meantime, you may create an entry as a feature suggestion in the Feedback Portal at Microsoft Teams · Community, Other users may vote it and make it more visible to the service team so that it may be considered for future upgrades.

For other concerns, please do not hesitate to add you post in the Microsoft Community Team.

Thank you for your cooperation and understanding.
