Google Vault : how do you view the export?

[fiza]

Using Google Vault I have found 500 emails that we need to look through to redact 3rd party names for a Subject Access Request.

Is there an easy way to get the Google Vault export into Outlook? Or is there any easy way to print off all 500 emails and then we can manually go through them to redact names.

 

Anyone done this please?

Ok so after talking to Google Support it seems that if I do a search in vault that covers multiple users ie search for emails that contain a name then vault will create an export zip file and within that zip file will be individual emails each saved in pst format but zipped individually.

 

This seems crazy as I would then have to unzip each file and then import each pst file individually into MS Outlook to view and print. That's over 500 zip files!!!

 

Please, someone tell me there is an easier way to do this.

There is an option to export to PST file which you can open in Outlook. So run your search and there is an export button. Then you get to download the files.

Roger, I did use that option but because the emails found were sent by many different users that means that each email creates its own PST file. I had this confirmed by Google Support this afternoon. Seems a mad way to do it. His only suggestion was that I put it in as a feature request.
