Teams chat backup - Update on premium API

[AlexL]

There is no longer any cost with backing up Teams chats, since Aug'25, that is what this whole thread is about. So no more reason not to backup them.
But mind you, it is posts in channels that will be in the backup, one on one chats or group chats are not supported.

There was an update to 365 backup in December, 2025, but still nothing pertaining to the backup of 1:1 chats in Teams? Or did we miss that FR?

Correct — no changes for Teams Chats in v8.3.
New features and enhancements in version 8.3 are documented in KB4809.

Best,
Fabian

I'd like to add we're also waiting for this feature. Other vendors added 1:1 chat export months ago, and Veeam has been silent on the matter. If it is not in the product by Q2 2026 I'm afraid to say we will not be renewing our subscription - our compliance requirements will force us to a different product.

Hi Tim,

By Q2 is won't be ready for sure, this support should come later this year.
