When users search for a chat message in Teams and click on a message result, they are taken to a view that contains only the selected message, rather than the entire chat thread. This fix will now land the users on the full chat thread once the message search result is clicked, thereby providing full context of the conversation around the message result.
The feature will be rolling out for Teams Desktop and Web clients and is applicable to message results on the SERP page and the contextual search surfaces.
