# Import a Microsoft Teams chat as a guest user

Import your Microsoft Teams chat with an external organization user as a guest user.

## Before you begin

Role required: agent

## About this task

This procedure is accomplished through the classic ServiceNow® user interface. For information about the same procedure accomplished through the workspace, see [Import messages from Agent Workspace](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/employee-service-management/employee-experience-foundation/import-messages-agent-workspace.md).

When a guest imports a chat, attachments are not uploaded to the record. Attachments appear as a link to the file on the Microsoft OneDrive application.

## Procedure

1.  Launch Microsoft Teams.

2.  Navigate to **ServiceNow for Microsoft Teams** > **Employee Center** > **My Requests**.

3.  Open the ticket that you want to work on in your ServiceNow instance.

4.  Select **Import messages from Microsoft Teams**.

5.  On the Import messages from Microsoft Teams form, select the **Show conversations** list and determine the conversations to display.

    -   To list all the conversations created for the record, select **Started from this record**.
    -   To list all conversations related to the logged-in agent, select **Started from this record**.
6.  Select the **Select a conversation** list and choose the messages, files, and the images you want to import.

7.  On the Import messages from Microsoft Teams form, select the **Import messages as** list and choose the location to append the imported messages.

    -   To append the imported messages in the **Additional comments** field and allow customers to view messages, select **Additional comments**.
    -   To append the imported messages in the **Work notes** field and keep the messages internal, select **Work notes**.
8.  Select **Import**.
