- Chats are actually stored in Azure as Juan pointed out. However, if you have Exchange Online on your account, and I think on newer On-Prem exchange works, but copies of all these chats get saved to your inboxes in a hidden folder similar to conversation history from skype for business that is accessible via Content searches.
Team channel conversations are stored in azure and copied to the same folder on the attached group mailbox (hidden) similar to chats.
Files in chats get saved to the uploaders or chat starter's MIcrosoft Teams Chat Files (Upload) or inplace share from OneDrive.
Files in Teams are stored in default documents library in attached SharePoint site.
The Outlook link is to the Office 365 group inbox which is basically a shared e-mail inbox with group membership.
Hope this helps.
Hi Feliz,
Thanks for your reply. In my specific instance, there was some issue so the recording never made it to streams and could not be found on web.microsoftstream.com.
Thanks!
B25USA Do you have a Streams licence enabled? It is possible to record a Teams meeting without a Streams licence. In this scenario the meeting is recorded and processed in the Azure media services. In the Teams meeting chat you will get a link to download the recording from Azure media services for 21 days after this point the file is automatically deleted.

Yes, we have Streams license enabled but in this particular instance, the content never got uploaded successfully to Streams. Notification of the "recording" just sat in the user's Team's windows until if finally went away after 21 day or so.
Thanks!
B25USA Have you checked that you have not used your full Stream storage allowance. If it is fully utilised you cannot upload any new meeting records.

Thanks for the reply but we were not out of Stream Storage. The file failed to upload to Stream and appeared in my users' chat window. The "download" link finally went away after 30 days had elapsed from the time of the original recording.
