Step 1: Create an app in Azure Active Directory For more information, see the Create role groups or Modify role groups sections in the article "Manage role groups in Exchange Online". Or you can create a role group, assign the Mailbox Import Export role, and then add the appropriate users as members. You can add the Mailbox Import Export role to the Organization Management role group in Exchange Online. By default, this role isn't assigned to any role group in Exchange Online. The user who sets up the custom connector in the Microsoft 365 compliance center (in Step 5) must be assigned the Mailbox Import Export role in Exchange Online. If there are more than 200,000 Facebook Business items in a day, none of those items will be imported to Microsoft 365.
The connector for Facebook Business pages can import a total of 200,000 items in a single day.
The free Azure Active Directory subscription that's included with your Microsoft 365 subscription doesn't support the connectors in the Microsoft 365 compliance center. Sign up for a Pay-As-You-Go Azure subscription Sign up for a free one year Azure subscription If you don't have an existing Azure subscription, you can sign up for one of these options: Your organization must have a valid Azure subscription.
Currently, you can only archive data from Facebook Business pages you can't archive data from individual Facebook profiles. You need a Facebook account for your organization's business pages (you need to sign in to this account when setting up the connector). Prerequisites for setting up a connector for Facebook Business pagesĬomplete the following prerequisites before you can set up and configure a connector in the Microsoft 365 compliance center to import and archive data from your organization's Facebook Business pages. Using a connector to import and archive Facebook data in Microsoft 365 can help your organization stay compliant with government and regulatory policies. You can search third-party data using Content Search or associate the mailbox where the Facebook data is stored with a custodian in an Advanced eDiscovery case.
For example, when a mailbox is placed on Litigation Hold or assigned to a retention policy, the Facebook data is preserved. After you set up and configure the connector, it connects to the Facebook Business page (on a scheduled basis), converts the content of Facebook items to an email message format, and then imports those items to a mailbox in Microsoft 365.Īfter the Facebook data is imported, you can apply Microsoft 365 compliance features such as Litigation Hold, Content Search, In-Place Archiving, Auditing, Communication compliance, and Microsoft 365 retention policies to the Facebook data. Use a connector in the Microsoft 365 compliance center to import and archive data from Facebook Business pages to Microsoft 365.
