Export search results in eDiscovery (preview)

  • Članak

After a search associated with a Discovery (preview) case is successfully run, you can export the search results. When you export search results, mailbox items are downloaded in PST files or as individual messages. When you export content from SharePoint and OneDrive sites, copies of native Office documents and other documents are exported. When you export items, the items are prepared for download depending on the export options that you define. You can monitor the export's progress and download the results from the Process manager page. Larger exports might take longer to complete.
