New Feature

Data Governance: New Target Download API for Legal Hold

Targeted Download is an API-based method for remote data retrieval, designed to gather data linked to specific users under a Legal-Hold policy. This approach allows legal administrators to employ their scripting skills and create customized automated workflows, using languages like Python or PowerShell, to selectively gather the necessary metadata or actual data. By eliminating irrelevant and duplicate data, this process reduces eDiscovery costs effectively. To learn more, see Using Target Download API.
