All files that you upload, create, or share in Teams can be found in the OneDrive 
The OneDrive app allows you to search, sort, and filter files based on if they are your files, files that have been shared with you, favorites, and more. Additionally, you can easily browse files by the people who have shared the files with you, and files that were shared during a specific meeting.
Files in channels and chats
Files that you upload to a channel are stored in your team's SharePoint folder. These files are available in the Files tab at the top of each channel.
Files that you upload to a one-on-one or group chat are stored in the Microsoft Teams Chat Files in your OneDrive for Business and are shared only with the people in that conversation. These are available in the Files tab at the top of a chat.
Note: The OneDrive files you see in Teams are OneDrive for Business files associated with your Microsoft 365 account, not your personal OneDrive. Teams can't currently connect to your personal OneDrive.
