Updated January 2, 2024: We have updated the rollout timeline below. Thank you for your patience.

We are releasing a tenant wide Hold report as Public Preview in eDiscovery (Premium). 

This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 93268

When this will happen:

Rollout in Public Preview will begin in mid-December 2023 and is expected to be complete by late January 2024 (previously mid-January). 

How this will affect your organization:

The hold report in eDiscovery (Premium) will let users with eDiscovery Administrator permissions to access a built-in report with information on all hold policies associated with eDiscovery cases in the Microsoft Purview compliance portal. This includes eDiscovery holds associated with eDiscovery (Standard) and eDiscovery (Premium) cases.

The hold report is a report on all hold policies within the tenant and lists all locations that are part of any hold policies within the tenant (whether the hold policy is turned on or off).

The report will be available under the ‘Reports’ tab in eDiscovery (Premium).



What you need to do to prepare:

  • Assess if the changes will change your organization’s eDiscovery workflow. If so, update internal documentation. Provide training to all eDiscovery users in your organization and update relevant documentation if needed.
  • Your organization’s eDiscovery administrators should now have a one stop view of all hold policies in the tenant, the locations within those policies and the hold policy status.
