How It Works

Get started in minutes with our simple process

1

Install the Extension

Add Teams Chat Backup to your Chrome browser from the Chrome Web Store. Installation takes just seconds.

2

Sign In with Google

Use any Google/Gmail account to authenticate (doesn't need to match your Microsoft Teams account). This is only for license verification.

3

Navigate to Your Chat

Open Microsoft Teams and select the specific chat or channel you wish to back up.

4

Start the Backup

Click the Teams Chat Backup icon in your Chrome toolbar. Adjust the capture interval slider (0.1 to 5 seconds between screenshots) and click 'Backup Current Chat'.

5

Download Your Files

Once complete, download your continuous chat history as a PDF document and optionally as a TXT file with timestamped conversations.

Important: About Account Authentication

Your Google and Microsoft accounts are completely separate!

The Google/Gmail account you use to sign in to the extension does NOT need to be the same as your Microsoft Teams account. These are two independent authentication systems:

Google Account

Used only for extension license verification and authentication

Microsoft Account

The account you're logged into Teams with in your browser

Example:

You can sign in to the extension with personal@gmail.com while backing up Teams conversations from work@company.com

No connection or linking between the two accounts is required!
