Hello! If there’s a shared inbox for outlook, can people who have access to that inbox see your search history? Like can they see what you have searched on your end in the shared inbox?

    Only a subset of items are synchronized in shared mailboxes or public folders in Outlook 2016

    There are 3rd party auditor applications which use PowerShell to view.

    Hi @jsjjsjana9087 ,

    Others who have access to the shared inbox cannot see your search history. Your search history is personal to you and is not visible to others who have access to the shared inbox.

    Search history is stored locally on the computer or device on which it was performed. It is not stored on a server.
