Re: Creating a rule for automated deletion of unused files
adam deltingerHello Adam, thanks for this answer. Unfortunatly we currently don`t have the Microsoft Information Protection activated. Is there any way that wouldn`t involve the Microsoft Information Protection? Thanks in advance.3KViews0likes0CommentsRe: Creating a rule for automated deletion of unused files
adam deltingerHello Adam, thanks for sending me this link. Unfortunatly this isn`t really what I need. It looks like retention policies are something the admin sets once and then applies to all users. This is not what I want because there might be users that don`t want any of there files delete after sometime because they are all important or whatever. Perfect would be either something the user can set himself directly into OneDrive or a specific folder that you set the rentention policy for. For example you configure that the folder named "Temporary files" will apply the retention policy but all the other folder don`t. I hope this makes the point a little bit more clear.3.1KViews0likes3CommentsCreating a rule for automated deletion of unused files
Hello together, I was wondering if there is a setting somewhere in OneDrive for Business which allows the user to set a time after which files should be deleted if they haven`t been touched/modified. For example if I create a word file to write down some notes or create a draft and I forget about it it will be in my OneDrive forever. I might not want that because after some time I will have hundreds of unused files that I will never use or look at again. So i was wondering if there is a rule for example that I can apply either to a specific folder or the complete OneDrive that "monitors" the files and deletes the once that have a last modified date older then 90 days. At first glance I couldn`t find anything. Only thing I came up with was a Flow that runs everyday and checks those files for the last modified date and then deletes the once that have a value older then 90 days. It`s not finished yet but I am pretty sure it will work BUT this might not be a appropriate solution for my customers. Did someone have this issue/request before?
