Filter on Recycle bin Search
Hi,
Is there some sort of filter or search in the recycle bin to find a spesific deleted document, user deleted a document but can't remember the date and time, only parts of the name but browsed through the recycle bin but no luck.
Thanks.

Completely agree that at least Site Collection admins should have a way to search, sort and refine the Recycle Bin. It's like searching for a needle in haystack and incredible waste of time. The other area that we have same issue is People and Groups.
- Unfortunately no...the only way to do something like waht you need is by means of a custom PowerShell Script / Code

Thanks for the update.
Is there a public script available or should I write one myself and share it?
Thanks.
- Cadder_auCopper ContributorUgh.. 2022 and we're still having to scroll through the haystack looking for a needle.
jvdwesthuizen did you end up finding/writing a search/filter script?
