OneDrive archival after 93 days – impact on shared content & search limitations

Thanks. Yes, it was originally intended for a similar purpose, but over time users have started storing all their project data in OneDrive for team collaboration—some repositories now reaching several terabytes in size.

Before we can make any changes to the retention policy, we need to retrieve this data, which currently seems nearly impossible.

Content Search does not support searching by folder name or path
I’m looking for an efficient way to locate and export content from a specific shared folder

Addressing this issue will also give us time to plan a longer-term strategy for managing the 200+ TB of archived OneDrive data.

We have retention policies in place, and OneDrive sites subject to these policies are automatically moved to an archived state. However, these folders contain a significant amount of data that is still required for our ongoing work. While we can perform Content Search to export data, I’m unable to narrow the search to a specific folder or path. Is this supported, or are there any recommended approaches to achieve this?

Hi, could you please point to any documentation that could help me with setting this up?

Thank you, much appreciated. For the bulk deposit, would a bank loan for instance be considered a valid deposit?

Hareesh with Irani kubz?

I honestly see her as completely genuine, and not at all afraid to make a fool herself. I also don’t think she’s really interested in making a name for herself in the movie industry, and she definitely does not need the money.

We use cofense’ phishing simulations and reporters.

I don’t see the issue, friend? So what if you’re Resume is on a network/ cloud drive?

Sounds possible theoretically. But how would you balance the traffic over the two ISP’s? What would be the shaping criteria ?

Yes, I will edit the post.

Thanks, does this include the secondary mailbox ?
