getTeamsUserActivityUserDetail: What exactely is "Team Chat Message Count"?

Hi! We have created a Teams usage report that compares sent email count to Team Chat Message Count and private chat count.
I can't find out if Team Chat Message Count is both the posts and replies that a user makes in teams all over, or if it's just the posts - without replies?

Under CSV there isn't an explanation for what the different types actually shows.

Can someone please help me? Thanks :)

Hi @Anne Birgitte Sivesind Strebel

For Teams chat Message, it not includes the reply in your Teams channel. In this document's second paragraph, it show the API about chat message including reply and without reply.

Hi @JimmyYang-MSFT ! Thank you so much for your answer and sorry for the late reply!
Since I don't have the technical competence required for working with graph I forwarded your answer to my colleague. He says that with this method he would have to do this for all channels in teams one by one, if I understood him correctly. In the report we want to measure ALL posts and ALL replies a user makes across all of the teams that she/he is a member of.
'Do you know if it's possible to loop through all post/reply user acitivity in Teams without having to check one by one?

Accepted answer
