We would like to understand why we cannot export the Team Chat data of meetings? Would there any possibility to introduce this request? Many thanks, Ingrid

    Yes, it is possible to search for and export Microsoft Teams chat data for on-premises users using eDiscovery tools. However, this feature requires certain prerequisites, such as synchronizing on-premises user accounts with Azure Active Directory and assigning the user a Microsoft Teams license and a minimum of an Exchange Online Plan 1 license. Additionally, only the Teams chat data associated with an on-premises user is stored in the cloud-based storage area, and an on-premises user cannot access this storage area.

    Regarding exporting Team Chats of meetings, it is not clear from your question whether you are referring to exporting chat data from a specific meeting or exporting chat data from all meetings. If you are referring to exporting chat data from a specific meeting, it is possible to download a transcript of the meeting chat by clicking on the ellipsis (...) during the meeting and selecting "Show conversation history". From there, you can select "Download" to download a transcript of the chat. If you are referring to exporting chat data from all meetings, this feature is not currently available.
