[Autogenerated] Hello and welcome to the
SharePoint Online administration playbook.
Course. My name is Vlad caret UNESCO, and
I'll be your instructor for this course.
In this module, we will learn how to lock
and unlock SharePoint sites. Well, first,
look at why is this useful? And when
locking and unlocking SharePoint sites
make sense for the SharePoint admin, and
finally we will learn how to actually get
it done. So let's start. Why would we want
to do this? What's the business case
locking Abshire prints. IT allows you to
make the sight read only or completely
blocking access to a site. A good example
could be a project site that you want to
keep as an archive, but make sure it's in
read only mode so nobody can modify,
upload or delete documents. As for
blocking people from a site, you could
have, for example, an old board or
committee site that shouldn't be access
anymore, but you want to keep it there
hidden for compliance or other reasons,
and being able to remake it accessible very quickly.
