Workaround for accidentally deleting files in Sharepoint online
We are using Online Sharepoint and users sometimes deleted files accidentally and after couple of months they realize these files required, as I know this can be recover up to 92 days but I want to k...
So it's like adding Preservation hold library before First Recycle bin, whenever user delete a file will go there first, and we can set like 7 yrs before its going to first recycle bin, right?
-is this can be done by Sharepoint Site owner for specific SP's ?
- what permission required to setup Preservation hold library? if any guide link will be helpful..
Many thanks 🙂
No. It makes a copy to the library. The recycle bin still works the same to end users. Permissions require a global admin or someone with compliance files to turn on.
I’ll dig up an article later when I get in but you can just google SharePoint Online preservation and should get examples.
