MC726123 - Microsoft Teams Events eDiscovery and legal hold support via Microsoft Purview for compliance needs

Updated May 8, 2024: We have updated the rollout timeline below. Thank you for your patience.

Microsoft Teams webinar and townhall eDiscovery and legal hold were supported by Microsoft SharePoint. With this update, event and registration data will be available via Substrate Content Domain, and users will be able to use Microsoft Purview as their compliance tool for eDiscovery and legal hold. 

This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 381950

When this will happen:

Worldwide and GCC: We will begin rolling out mid-January 2025 (previously mid-July) and expect to complete by early February 2025 (previously late July).

How this will affect your organization:

Tenant admins can use Purview for eDiscovery and legal hold purposes instead of using SharePoint.

What you need to do to prepare:

There is no action needed to prepare for this change. You may want to notify your users about this change and update any relevant documentation as appropriate.
