Overview

To reduce your organization's storage consumption, you can automatically purge the deleted content after a specific time period. By default, the time period is set to 90 days. inSync permanently removes all deleted files and folders that were deleted 90 days ago. 

Note: You cannot recover purged data. 

Once inSync purges the content, Share users cannot see the content that they deleted. 

In situations where a deleted file or folder is restored and again deleted, inSync updates that content's deletion time to the most recent deletion time. The purge time period starts from the most-recent deletion time of the content. inSync purges the rest of the deleted content based on the content's original deletion time.
