What does the archive experience for OneDrive look like after the change to unlicensed accounts?
Based on this change, OneDrive accounts will be set to archive: Unlicensed OneDrive accounts subject to a retention policy, retention period, or legal hold will be automatically archived after 93 days of license removal. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/unlicensed-onedrive-accounts#enforcement-of-policy-changes-for-unlicensed-onedrive-accounts To test the experience, we attempted to run the PowerShell script used to archive a SharePoint site to a OneDrive site: Set-SPOSiteArchiveState https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/sharepoint-online/set-spositearchivestate?view=sharepoint-ps However, it does not appear that a OneDrive site type is supported with this script. Does anyone know what "archived" actually means in the context of a OneDrive account? Also, what will the experience be both from a user perspective and from an admin perspective? In SharePoint, there's a message indicating the site is in an archived state and admins can see a list of all archived sites via the admin center. I think a lot of confusion would be avoided if OneDrive "sites" appeared in a list like SharePoint sites do within the SharePoint admin center. Thank you!
Archive
Hi Outlook Team, Good Day , Customer wants to clarify the following questions regarding the Archive Process. According to the MRM policy applied to user mailboxes, emails do not immediately appear in the Archive folder. They become visible to end users after 7 days. Where do these emails reside during those seven days, and is this behavior expected? The customer wants to comprehend the behavior of email disappearance. If email disappearance is intentional by design, the customer seeks a change in this process.Disable-Mailbox -Archive in EXO with M365 Retention Policies assigned
Hello, working with a client that has 3 M365 retention policies assigned org-wide: 1. For All EXO mailboxes and all SPO/OneDrive's 2. For Teams Chats - all users/Teams 3. For Teams everything else - all users/Teams I'm unable to exclude a mailbox from #2 or #3 via Set-RetentionCompliancePolicy -AddExchangeLocationException, due to error TL;DR: this policy controls teams and Exchange settings are not allowed to be changed. I'm unable to do Disable-Mailbox -Archive, as the error tells me about the Teams policy #3 above being assigned (which indeed shows up in Get-OrganizationConfig). User's InPlaceHolds properly shows -mbx<guidOfPolicy#1Above>, and DelayHoldApplied/DelayReleaseHoldApplied both set to False. I'm unable to do Set-Mailbox -ExcludeFromAllOrgHolds, because that is only allowed on Inactive Mailboxes. Same goes for Set-Mailbox -ExcludeFromOrgHolds. My use case - UserMailbox which was enabled with an online Archive is now converted to a SharedMailbox, only requires <50GB, and no Archive. Archive is not even allowed per the EXO Service Descriptions for an un-licensed SharedMailbox. I find no way to drop the Archive mailbox successfully. This is fine, except the hypothetical scenario where the users of this SharedMailbox start to place items into the Archive, and then Microsoft invents something which takes away Archive mailboxes from un-licensed accounts. Not sure if that will ever happen, but I see no way to get this done and be on the right side of the license terms. Any ideas?
Microsoft 365 Archive Public Preview?
Hi all, Has anyone heard from Microsoft on the timeline for the public preview for M365 Archive? We're reviewing similar solutions from AvePoint but our interest in a native archiving tool is also very high, but we do have project deadlines to meet - hence my interest in double checking when this should be available for customers who have expressed interest earlier this year through the Syntex "register for more info" form?
