Backup, export, printing, archive options
Can Teams chat and activities data be exported, printed, archived, and backed up/restored? Within Sharepoint or elsewhere? This could be necessary for a few reasons both during projects and for historical records.

We need to be able to export the full text from conversations for record keeping and documentation.

Yes please! Microsoft -- please have this feature! Skype can save conversations in Outlook so that we have a copy of chat history, and MS teams, an MS product, couldnt?

nothing since 2018 as a movement on status from "under review" --> terribly poor consumer experience management
Given the TV advertising (at least in the UK) at the moment on utilising teams for market research with Hasbro, where analysis is a pretty key part of the output not just observation this is really dire!

It can move, merge, copy, archive and export channels ✅
In addition, can change channels from private to public and vice versa
Also available in Microsoft Appsource

Over 4 years later, 4.5k votes + multiple other threads about this and still nothing. Appalling. We know it can be done because it's in the security and compliance centre. Even a basic text file would do at this point.

Hello, can you export all the chat of a scheduled meeting from the calendar? I tried from the browser to copy and paste all the chats of that meeting and it only selects 5 to 10 conversations and if I try to print it in PDF it only prints a single page. it would be very important that you take it into account for the new updates since it is necessary to keep historical records or send them to all those who participated in the meeting. Thank you.

Microsoft, please add an export function for channels and the contained conversations. Its fine to have the ability to have documents also being displayed in sharepoint but they often only make sense with the comments shared in a team. Especially when you are dealing with primary school students.

Under review in Aug 2018, any update?
This request has been submitted to UserVoice a number of times under different headings and "how do I do this" is asked on the tech community regularly. It would be good to have a decision on the review.

Can Teams provide friendly report for user chat history? Only supports from search content and export to PST and then can not see thread. Very annoying

Just finished a Teams meeting and bumped into this shortcoming when I learned the hard way that there is no easy way to grab all the text in one go. Many thanks to Anonymous (https://microsoftteams.uservoice.com/users/1719369742) who pointed me to this page by suggesting users lend their voice to the highest voted request on this topic (rather than just the first one I blundered across). @Warren (or whoever inherited this responsibility), I know you guys get swarmed with requests, but can y'all at least acknowledge that this request is still under consideration? 2+ years is plenty of time to provide *some* update response.

Note that this request has been submitted to UserVoice dozens of times under separate entries:
... and lots more with hundreds of votes each.
@Warren, any chance of an update?
