MicrosoftThank you for this write-up. It has answered a lot of questions for me. However, one thing I can't figure out is how use "Additional" data sources in my script. As I understand the APIs and parameters, when an Additional DS is created, it must be bound to a search. However, when a Search is created, it must be bound to a DS. So how do I create a search that has only an "Additional" DS?
MicrosoftHi mad_scripter, so the way I have been navigating that is to create my search I set dataSourceScopes to AllCustodians. This approach works as I haven't used the ediscoveryCustodian API calls (maintained for backwards compatibility) on the case to add any custodians or non-custodial data locations. This will effectively create the search with no locations defined and then you can use the Add Additional Sources API calls to add in my data sources to the search.
