Stream content after user is deleted?
- Nov 07, 2017
We don't automatically delete the videos uploaded in Stream for any reason. After a user is no longer in you organization (or student leaves the school), the video remains in Stream. Basically all videos are "owned" by the tenant. The Stream Admins have admin rights to make changes to any video so they can take appropriate action on videos that don't have owners anymore.

Marc Mroz Thanks. As a tenant admin, how do I access the video that a user no longer with the organization created?

We now have a user that was deleted from the O365 portal. But in MS Stream he is still in as an uploader and you can't delete or replace him. His name and the X is gray hatched. Is there a solution for this?

Sounds like the video is retained by the organisation, but how does that effect it's visibility? I notice that in Stream you can always see who uploaded the video. What happens after that employee leaves? Does the video remain shared to which ever groups/channels it has been shared to, and displayed as being uploaded by the departed employee?
Thanks

The same rule apply to Office 365 Video?- Marc MrozNov 07, 2017

Yes. O365 Video in the background are just files and site collections in SharePoint Online. So those are all "owned" by the tenant and remain after the person who uploaded is gone.
