How to embed large text blocks in a chat message
I am trying to include a large-ish code snippet in a Teams message. I understand that the message itself can only be so many characters, but is there a way to create an ad-hoc object to place a larger text chunk in, rather than save my content to a file and attach the file?Teams Support for Emojis in Chat and Channels Section Names
Teams users can use emojis to create or rename chat section names. By incorporating emojis into section names, users create “visual anchors” to help navigate through Teams chats and channels. Sprinkling emojis around section names doesn’t really make me navigate any smarter, but it’s a feature that Slack has, so Teams can’t be left behind in the pretty interface stakes. https://office365itpros.com/2025/10/08/teams-chat-section-names/
BUG: Teams "search"/"find" functionality totally broken with rich (formatted) text
Consider the following formatted/rich text comment: Test word1 word2 word3 Using "search"/"find" (either the global "Search", or the "Find in chat" function) will fail to match the comment when searching for either "test", "word1", "word2", or "word3". This is because buggy Teams just strips the formatting (instead of replacing the formatting with breaks), effectively glueing all words together in the index; searching for "testword1word2word3" (one word) DOES match the comment. 🤦🤦🤦
Ability to take Personal Notes on Interactions in TEAMS
I have a lot of situations where I would like to take and keep personal notes associated to a specific TEAMS interactions. I don't want to have to keep my notes in a separate place like OneNote or Outlook. Requests Don't make the notes public for all of the participants (possibility to add a private tab to the interaction window in TEAMS Access the notes directly through the window in TEAMS for the Chat, phone call, or meetingHow do I get accurate dates for messages?
On a regular basis, Teams will show messages that are as old as a week ago as being sent "today". Is there a way of actually ensuring that the date is correct, or should this just be expected behavior? I tell you, I really miss Skype at this point. I don't know how Microsoft can mess up this badly on a chat program.Respond to Teams Messages with Multiple Emoji Reactions
The need for more nuanced responses to Teams chat and channel messages can apparently be met through multiple emoji reactions instead of a basic one-emoji response like a smile or thumbs up. In any case, users can add up to 20 emojis in response to Teams chat and channel messages. The possibilities of what 20-emoji combinations might communicate are endless, or so it seems. https://office365itpros.com/2025/06/06/multiple-emoji-reactions-teams/Moving from skype to teams does not migrate my chat history
Hello, I have tried to login to teams using my skype username. It prompt me to merge my skype account with my personal email. I clicked yes. it successfully logged me in into Ms Teams. I cannot see my skype chat history into teams and also not all of my contacts are there. I have enabled skype account contacts to sync from Settings => People => Sync contact => Manage but still not all contacts are synced and no chat history at all. Anyone knows how can I import the chat history as well? Thank you in advance
