Search extension for teams

Occasional Contributor

Can anyone recommend a search extension for Teams?

Teams used to have a feature where I could search for a message then jump to that point in conversation. This feature sadly no longer exists.

(Heres a post about it: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/microsoft-teams/teams-messages-search-function-does-not-show-...)

In addition to this, Teams lacks any sort of meaningful way to export chats (so i could search through the messages with e.g. notepad) (Heres another complaint about it https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msteams/forum/all/export-messages-from-teams-chat/2e522719-8384-...)

 

Teams on its own is pretty much useless and only makes things difficult. Id change to something like slack if I could.

 

Are there any extensions that would add back search and/or exporting of chat history?

Any and all other quality of life addons are welcome too. I know I'm not the only one suffering because of dumb decisions by Microsoft.

Hi,

Here is my recommendation. Can you try to use the Search Option in the Top of the Microsoft Teams Application using the key words and then click on Go To Message.

Seems to be working for me on the Microsoft Teams version 1.5.00.17656. Can you please check if you are using the latest version of Microsoft Teams Application.

Dude... just read what I asked. I want to jump to that point IN CONVERSATION not to a single message.
Your answer was not helpful, you just described basic search feature.
