Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue with a Teams chat message containing inline code followed by a triple-backtick block, then query it with GET /v1.0/chats/{id}/messages/{msg}. The payload names no files, tests, or SDK entry point; done would require the returned HTML to preserve each code block's own content instead of reusing an earlier code element.

Describe the bug

Per: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/5728345/(bug)-teams-graph-api-regression-codeblockeditor-v

[I'm not sure if the "Javascript SDK" is the right place for this, because it's a server-side bug, but here goes... If there's a better repository, I'd be happy to repost it there, thanks!]

Within the past week or so (January 2026) whenever I GET /v1.0/chats/{id}/messages/{msg}, it seems that "triple-backtick" code blocks have gone from being sent as <p itemtype="http://schema.skype.com/CodeBlockEditor"> elements to dedicated <codeblock> tags, with embedded <code> inside...

That wouldn't be a problem, EXCEPT I've noticed that when there's another <code> tag earlier in the message content, it replaces the contents of any subsequent <codeblock><CODE>...</CODE></codeblock> blocks.

To wit:

    The `message` is:
    ```
        Hello, world!
    ```

Produces the following snippet of JSON:

    "body": {
      "content": "<p>The <code>message</code> is:</p>\n<codeblock class=\"PlainText\"><code>message</code></codeblock>",
      "contentType": "html"
    }

Note that the second message does NOT say "Hello, world!"

This also happens for other "triple-backtick" code blocks:

    ```
    Line One
    ```

    Line `Two`

    ```
    Line Three
    ```

Becomes "One, Two, One" :-(

Expected behavior

In the first example, I would expect to see <codeblock><code> Hello, world!</code></codeblock>

How to reproduce

Send a Teams message (chat or channel) with the markup:

    This is `inline code`

    ```
    This is a block
    ```

Then query that message via the Graph API; you'll see that it returns the wrong results.

Like I say, I tried looking for a more API-related repository, but github.com/microsoftgraph lists, like, 230 different repos, and I only made it through ~3 pages of results before I gave up... «sigh»
