Overview

As part of an ongoing effort to streamline the University of Miami's digital workspace, the IT department is reviewing and archiving SharePoint sites that have remained inactive over an extended period. This initiative helps improve system performance, reduce storage costs, and enhance data security by ensuring that only actively used sites remain accessible.

Getting Started

For SharePoint site owners, clicking the link below will direct you to the Inactive SharePoint Sites Application where you will:

  • Review a list of SharePoint sites you are listed as an owner for that have been flagged due to inactivity.
  • For each site, indicate whether it should remain active or be archived.

This quick review process helps ensure that the University's SharePoint environment stays secure, relevant, and clutter-free.

Inactive SharePoint Sites App

You must make a selection for every SharePoint site you are listed as an owner for before being able to submit your selections. For each site, choose one option: "Archive my site," "I am not the owner," or "Keep my site." After making all of your selections, click "Submit."

Important Notes:

  • Some SharePoint sites may have been created as part of a Microsoft Teams space. Please be aware that archiving/deleting these types of SharePoint sites will also archive/delete the corresponding Teams space.
  • Selections made within the Inactive SharePoint Sites Application are final and cannot be changed once submitted. Please review your choices carefully before submitting.
