We are very glad to announce new auditing feature added to Exchange Online public folders. The feature allows you to monitor/track public folder deletions in the organization.
Public folder deletions performed using any client (Outlook desktop client, Exchange admin center, Exchange Online PowerShell etc.) are all audited.
The feature is now available for all Exchange Online tenants.
The following are the steps to track the deletion:
- Login to Microsoft Purview Compliance portal (https://compliance.microsoft.com/)
- Select Audit and specify the following under New Search
- Date range for which auditing entries should be searched
- Under Record types select Public Folder
- Provide a meaningful search name and click on Search
The search will get queued, and should complete in a few minutes.
You can view the search results in the in the Purview Compliance portal and export the results as well.
Here are some examples:
