[When this will happen:]

Preview: We will begin rolling out late August and expect to complete by mid-September.

[How this will affect your organization:]

The ability to search for Teams and for select Teams channels to be added as non-custodial data sources will be available under the Data Sources > Add data locations >Teams option.

You can search for and add up to 10 Teams at a time. You can select the Standard, Shared and Private channels under each Team to add as a data source.

You can also select which associated locations you want to place on Hold.

eDiscovery users with the permissions to add locations in the Data sources page will be able to add mailboxes and sites associated with Teams channel (including standard, shared and private channels) as non-custodial data sources and preserve them.

[What you need to do to prepare:]

Assess if the changes will change your organization’s eDiscovery workflow. If so, update internal documentation. Provide training to all eDiscovery users in your organization and update relevant documentation if needed.
