What is the meaning by Using Use parent folder policy?
Dear All,
In exchange online archiving, I need to know what is the meaning of Use parent folder policy, while I am not assigning any policy for the parent folder Inbox,etc...
In this case what exactly is happen?
If you have not explicitly assigned a tag to a folder, the Default tag will apply. Same for any subfolders.
TonyRedmond had a nice article detailing this, but I cannot seem to find it atm. I can recommend the "Office 365 for IT Pros" book instead, where this topic is discussed in detail :)

- HanafiCopper ContributorThank you so much Vasil Michev
If it is a default folder and the retention policy assigned to the mailbox includes a folder retention tag for that folder, all items in the folder pick up that tag.
If it is not a default folder, all folders and items in the mailbox pick up the default retention tag in the policy unless a personal tag is assigned to a folder or item.
If a personal tag is assigned to a non-default folder, all items in the folder pick up that tag.
- Marcelo_CarrilloCopper ContributorHi Tony,
On that same example you are saying: "If it is a default folder and the retention policy assigned to the mailbox includes a folder retention tag for that folder, all items in the folder pick up that tag."
What happen if the retention policy includes for example 5 tags? What tag will the folder pick up?
