Anyone who has worked with SharePoint development in the golden age of server-side object model development (SOM) likely used the property bag for different requirements in their solutions. With the onset of new development techniques and foundations, the property bag went by the wayside and wasn’t used as often (or at all) when creating solutions. With the new adaptive scope feature in Microsoft Purview, property bag usage has made a resurgence as a necessary location to store values when assigning policies. I will be covering these features in a future post, but for now, I’d like to set the foundation for these posts by discussing property bags and their usage.
In my previous posts, I have covered several topics around retention labels. I have mentioned retention policies but never discussed the differences between the two features, and I thought I would cover that here. As a bonus, I created a video to cover this topic and provide you with the process for creating a retention policy. You can access the video here.
In this second video blog, I build on the previous presentation and publish my retention label with a retention label policy.

Thanks for reading!
I have a new announcement to make! In addition to my blog posts, I have also started to create video blogs to go along with my written posts. I know that many prefer to learn visually as opposed to reading text all the time. So I am now going to build video blogs along with many of my written posts. The first one is about retention labels.
I recently worked with a couple of Microsoft 365 user groups to provide some groundwork for Records Management. This presentation covers general records management concepts (technology agnostic) before discussing the implementation with Microsoft 365. Both groups asked some great question and I really enjoyed meeting with them. It’s a good presentation to understand not only the how, but also what records management is, why it’s important, who should be involved, and where it can be used within Microsoft 365.
