Hi
I wanted to know how internally lastAccessedDate for a SharePoint site is calculated. Is it derived from the lastAccessedDate of all files/folders from site or its calculated independently?

If anyone has an idea on this, please do let me know.
Thanks in advance!

    Hi @Hirdesh Baghel,

    In SharePoint, the LastAccessedDate is a property associated with a user's access to a site or an item within a site. It indicates the date and time when a user last accessed that particular resource.

    For example, if a user logs into a SharePoint site or accesses a document within a site, SharePoint keeps track of this information. The LastAccessedDate property is then updated to reflect the most recent access time.
