O365 Groups and its related content (Plan, Files, etc.) when Group Owner leaves the organization?
Can someone please let me know if the content gets deleted when a user who is a group owner leaves the company or his O365 license gets unaissigned? Will the data be deleted? Or will it stay forever?...
Hi Martina,
Currently I know that there is no full soft-delete function tied into groups which is a big roadblock to deployment in some environments however if it's possible to recover say just the OneDrive/SharePoint portion of the group currently today?

from the roadmap soft-delete of groups is close. If you need a separate backup of your SharePoint files within the group you can help yourself by using the Microsoft Graph API. This is what we did and this helped us a lot in the past!
I wish I could be as hopeful about the arrival of soft-delete. We have been asking for it since November 2014. It has been promised many times, most recently "by the end of 2016" as per Microsoft sessions at Ignite, and here we are in February 2017.
Soft-delete will come, it's just coming a lot longer than I thought it would ever take...
