Hi,
Retentions policies can do the following:
- Retain Teams chats and/or channel messages for a specified duration and then do nothing.
- Retain Teams chats and/or channel messages for a specified duration and then delete the data.
- Delete Teams chats and/or channel messages after a specified duration.
So all chat messages in a channel for both ad-hoc meetings and scheduled meetings should be removed. Since the retention is running in cycles with some delay it could take up to 7 days extra, so if you have a retention to delete messages after 30 days, it could take up to 37 days until they are deleted.

LinusCansby- Thanks
What about the meeting post? I see the scheduled meeting posts getting removed, however the meet now posts are not getting removed, some of the posts were created before the scheduled meeting posts.
