Simultaneously forward multiple messages from one chat to another

Question

In teams, can I simultaneously send several messages from one chat to another? Not to do it one at a time

Answer 1

Hi @Lane Parker

Microsoft Teams supports forwarding multiple messages from a chat at the same time, so you don't need to forward them individually.

You can select up to five messages and forward them together:

-Hover over a message and select More options (…) > Forward.

-Select Multiple messages.

-Select the messages you want to forward.

-Select Next, choose the recipient or chat, and then select Forward.

I hope this helps.

Answer 2

Yes. In Microsoft Teams, multiple messages can be forwarded at the same time.

1. Hover over a message and select More options > Forward > Multiple messages.
2. Select the check boxes next to the messages to send.
3. Select Next.
4. Enter the person, group chat, or channel.
5. Optionally add a note.
6. Select Forward.

Key limits and behavior:

• Up to five messages can be forwarded at one time.
• When multiple messages are forwarded, Teams sends them as a single bundled message in the original order.
• A new group chat can also be started from a forwarded message.
• If forwarding is unavailable in a channel, a sensitivity label on that team may be blocking it.
