SAR Exchange Output Using Purview

[MartinT]

It used to be that I would conduct a keyword search, output the results to a single PST and print the whole lot to PDF for redaction.

 

Now that Microsoft Purview has replaced Compliance, they seem to have made it a lot harder. The single PST contains top level mailbox names with sublevels of folders and message content. I can't find any way of printing this lot to a single PDF. Does anyone have any experience of this new system and how did you overcome the output format and redaction stages?

Can you not redact inside Purview and then export to pdf direct from their?

 

That said we tend to go the long way round. Export to flat files, individual emails becoming an .msg, convert these to PDF and then redact each one in turn. It allows us to break the job up between people and also track and review progress. Also we get a master list of unique identifiers for the emails if we ever need to revisit ones where a redaction was challenged.

It's not me that will do the redacting and I would prefer not to give them access to Purview.

 

I will try exporting to .msg files and see how that pans out. Thanks!

Use content search then in the export menu, you can set it to One PST for all messages.

This works for us also, I did it last week.

Fab - thanks, both, for some reason my eyes didn't scan that option!
