Teams chat retention change as of Dec. 3 2021

[Dunlap, Bryan]

Ohio State has updated retention schedules for both Microsoft Teams group and individual channel chats; this change is intended to align with University retention policies.
Note: the chat retention timeframes do NOT affect retention of data files within Teams or the Teams themselves; these do not expire.
Details can be found at the info article from IT at OSU<https://it.osu.edu/news/2021/11/03/microsoft-teams-retention-aligning-university-guidelines> - the basics include:

  1.  Individual and 1:1 chats – automatic deletion after 3 years (rolling schedule)
  2.  Team group chats – automatic deletion after 10 years (rolling schedule)
Please contact us at action at physics.osu.edu<mailto:action at physics.osu.edu> with any questions or concerns.
