Teams - Interact in a conversation in Teams Tutorial

Interact in a conversation in Teams demonstrates the main actions on a message: react with up to four quick responses, reply with a quote to tie a comment to the original message, forward or share the message, save it for later, pin important items, and edit or delete your own messages. It explains how to view actions by hovering, mentions channel versus chat differences, and notes that available options depend on context and organizational rules. It also covers copy link, immersive reader, and sending content to Outlook.

you'll learn about the main actions that can be performed on a message in teams

00:00:08

react,

00:00:09

reply with quote,

00:00:11

forward,

00:00:12

save,

00:00:13

pin,

00:00:13

share,

00:00:14

edit,

00:00:15

or delete.

00:00:16

These features make it possible to transform a simple discussion

00:00:21

into a more structured workspace

00:00:23

in teams,

00:00:24

each message can be manipulated in several ways

00:00:28

to view the available actions,

00:00:30

it is usually enough to hover over the message with the mouse.

00:00:34

A small bar will then appear above the message,

00:00:37

depending on whether it's a private chat,

00:00:40

group chat,

00:00:41

or channel.

00:00:42

Some options may vary slightly.

00:00:45

Let's start with the reactions.

00:00:47

When you hover over a message,

00:00:50

Teams gives you up to 4 quick reactions.

00:00:53

This allows you to acknowledge receipt,

00:00:56

show agreement,

00:00:57

or react without sending a new message.

00:01:00

This is especially useful to avoid weighing down a

00:01:04

conversation with responses like,

00:01:06

OK,

00:01:07

thank you,

00:01:08

or well received.

00:01:10

If the suggested reactions aren't enough for you,

00:01:13

you can open the full emoji picker.

00:01:16

Teams also allows you to customize your quick reactions to

00:01:20

more easily find the ones you use most often.

00:01:23

Another very useful action reply with a quote.

00:01:27

This feature inserts the original message into your reply box.

00:01:31

It is particularly useful in a lively conversation

00:01:34

or when you need to answer a sentence precisely without creating ambiguity.

00:01:39

Instead of writing an isolated response,

00:01:42

you clearly tie your comment to the right message.

00:01:45

Opening the three dot menu

00:01:47

will take you to additional actions.

00:01:50

The forward command allows you to send the message to another person,

00:01:54

another group chat,

00:01:55

or even a channel.

00:01:57

This is useful for circulating information without copying it.

00:02:02

You can also add a comment to give context before uploading content.

00:02:08

Copying the link retrieves a direct link to the message.

00:02:12

This is handy for referring someone

00:02:15

to the exact exchange,

00:02:17

provided,

00:02:17

of course,

00:02:19

that person has access to the original conversation.

00:02:23

Saving this message is used to set a message aside for later.

00:02:27

The saved messages then appear in the save section

00:02:31

at the top of your conversation and channel list.

00:02:34

It's a good way to keep an important instruction,

00:02:38

decision,

00:02:38

or link without having to search for it later in the history.

00:02:42

Share to Outlook allows you to send a team's message via email

00:02:47

without leaving the app.

00:02:48

This is useful when you need to pass information to someone who works more in Outlook

00:02:53

or keep track in another communication circuit.

00:02:57

Depending on your environment,

00:02:59

you may also see the immersive reader option,

00:03:02

which opens the message in a more comfortable reading mode

00:03:05

with accessibility tools.

00:03:08

The pin action deserves an important clarification.

00:03:12

In a private chat or group chat,

00:03:14

you can pin a message for everyone.

00:03:16

The message will then remain visible at the top

00:03:19

of the chat until it is removed or replaced.

00:03:23

This is very useful for highlighting reference information

00:03:26

such as a meeting link,

00:03:28

a decision,

00:03:29

or an instruction.

00:03:31

In a channel,

00:03:32

the principle also exists,

00:03:34

but these are pen publications they appear in the channel details.

00:03:38

Depending on the moderation rules of the channel,

00:03:41

the option may or may not be available to members

00:03:45

if the message is yours,

00:03:46

you also have the edit and delete options.

00:03:49

Edit allows you to correct a mistake,

00:03:52

rephrase a passage,

00:03:54

or add a clarification after submission.

00:03:57

Teams allows multiple edits to a single message.

00:04:01

It's handy when you send quickly,

00:04:03

then want to clarify.

00:04:05

Delete removes the message

00:04:08

if you just deleted it by mistake.

00:04:10

Teams can also offer a cancel option right after.

00:04:14

Keep in mind,

00:04:15

however,

00:04:16

that whether you can edit or delete a message

00:04:19

also depends on the rules set by your organization.

00:04:22

The important thing to remember is that not

00:04:25

all these actions have the same objective.

00:04:28

Reacting allows you to move quickly.

00:04:31

Answering with a quote allows you to be precise.

00:04:34

Saving helps to find information later.

00:04:37

Pinning puts a message forward for everyone.

00:04:41

Transferring or sharing an outlook allows information to flow to other spaces.

00:04:46

There you have it.

00:04:47

Now you know how to interact more effectively with messages and Microsoft Teams.

00:04:52

Make it a habit to use these actions at the right time.

00:04:56

They make conversations clearer,

00:04:58

faster to reread,

00:05:00

and much easier to use on a daily basis.
