Hello! Over the past month or so, I have been using a new Teams feature that allowed me to group chats, meetings etc. into buckets with the carrot to expand or collapse the contents. However, suddenly, yesterday that ability disappeared and no longer available. However, when I click on the "Chat" bubble, I can see my groupings for a split second, but then it goes away. What's happening and how can I get this back permanently?? Thanks!!

    Regarding your concern about the missing chat grouping feature, based on your description, it appears this issue is related to an ongoing incident currently affecting the Microsoft Teams user interface.

    In the meantime, a temporary workaround is to clear the cache in the Teams desktop client, which may help restore functionality. 

    Additionally, we recommend reporting this issue directly to the Teams product team by navigating to: Settings > Feedback > Report a problem      User's image

    Your company’s Global Admins can also report the issue in the Microsoft 365 Admin Center via Service Health, as shown in the screenshot below.
