You can use the below Command :
TO enable auditing for a single mailbox (in this example, belonging to Steve Smith), you can use this PowerShell command:
Set-Mailbox -Identity "Steve Smith" -AuditEnabled $true.
To enable auditing for all Office 365 mailboxes in your organization, you can use this PowerShell command:
Get-Mailbox -ResultSize Unlimited -Filter{RecipientTypeDetails -eq "UserMailbox"} | Set-Mailbox -AuditEnabled$true.
when we tried to enable it failed with time out . do you have any script to apply retry when we run audit
How many mailboxes are you trying to process?
The initial run of the cmdlet probably updated the audit setting for quite a few mailboxes, so you can now reduce the number of mailboxes remaining to be processed. This code only processes mailboxes that still have not had their audit setting enabled.
Get-Mailbox -RecipientTypeDetails UserMailbox | ? {$_.AuditEnabled -eq $False } | Set-Mailbox -AuditEnabled $True
