How to get an alert when someone is deleting a channel

Brass Contributor

We just lost a number of private channels because someone inadvertently deleted them and nobody noticed until after the 21 days grace period.

There seems to be no notification to the members of the channel when it is deleted or before it is purged.

Is there any way to get such alerts, either to the channel members or an admin? I tried to create an alert policy in the Compliance center, but there is no trigger for this, same with Power Automate.

Any advice is appreciated.

You can use an activity alert policy https://security.microsoft.com/managealerts or set up an activity policy with Defender for Clouds Apps using "ChannelDeleted".
That's exactly what I was looking for, much appreciated!
