Microsoft 365 compliance center: Information governance: Retention label deletion behavior change in SharePoint for Government clouds

Originally posted by Microsoft Dec 10, 2021 Microsoft 365 compliance center 0 Comments

Improved consistency of user experience between OneDrive and SharePoint, allowing users to “delete” files labeled with a retention label configured to “retain items for a specific period” as this operation is no longer blocked with an error message. When deleted, these files will still be preserved for compliance purposes by moving a copy of them to the “Preservation Hold Library” of the site where they can be accessed by eDiscovery and other compliance solutions.
