[Autogenerated] Hi. In this lesson, I'm

2
00:00:05,350 --> 00:00:07,030
going to show you how to activate site

3
00:00:07,030 --> 00:00:11,100
policy creation in SharePoint. As a site

4
00:00:11,100 --> 00:00:12,870
collection administrator, you have the

5
00:00:12,870 --> 00:00:16,020
ability to create retention policies for

6
00:00:16,020 --> 00:00:18,310
libraries, folders and documents. You can

7
00:00:18,310 --> 00:00:21,730
also create and apply closure and deletion

8
00:00:21,730 --> 00:00:24,700
policies of sites as well. But to do that,

9
00:00:24,700 --> 00:00:27,440
you have to activate that feature first.

10
00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:29,480
So let's go ahead and let's see how we do

11
00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:30,810
that. We're going to come up here to our

12
00:00:30,810 --> 00:00:33,410
settings gear, and we're going to click on

13
00:00:33,410 --> 00:00:36,020
site information. Now remember, you have

14
00:00:36,020 --> 00:00:38,840
to be the site collection administrator.

15
00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:40,820
We're going to come down to view all site

16
00:00:40,820 --> 00:00:45,550
settings, and it brings us here. Now this

17
00:00:45,550 --> 00:00:48,720
is gonna be the same on either a group

18
00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:52,040
connected site or a traditional site

19
00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:54,840
collection. We're going to come down to

20
00:00:54,840 --> 00:00:56,770
the site collection administration

21
00:00:56,770 --> 00:01:00,450
section, and if you don't see this section

22
00:01:00,450 --> 00:01:02,320
of options, then you are not the site

23
00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:04,160
collection administrator, and you will

24
00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:07,030
need to find somebody who is now. If you

25
00:01:07,030 --> 00:01:09,380
want to create a policy, you would come

26
00:01:09,380 --> 00:01:12,730
down here and look for site policies as

27
00:01:12,730 --> 00:01:15,640
one of the options. But we don't see that

28
00:01:15,640 --> 00:01:18,930
we also can look for content type

29
00:01:18,930 --> 00:01:22,460
retention policy templates as well, and we

30
00:01:22,460 --> 00:01:24,870
don't see that either, because they're not

31
00:01:24,870 --> 00:01:27,470
turned on. What we need to do is activate

32
00:01:27,470 --> 00:01:30,280
that feature, so we have to come here to

33
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:32,130
cite collection features. We're going to

34
00:01:32,130 --> 00:01:36,600
click there, and it brings us to site

35
00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:39,530
settings and the site collection features,

36
00:01:39,530 --> 00:01:41,830
and there's a lot of features in here. But

37
00:01:41,830 --> 00:01:43,410
they're all listed alphabetically, and

38
00:01:43,410 --> 00:01:46,540
what we are looking for is site policy.

39
00:01:46,540 --> 00:01:49,010
And there it is, right here, above three

40
00:01:49,010 --> 00:01:52,570
state workflow. So we just need to come

41
00:01:52,570 --> 00:01:54,920
over here to the activate button, click on

42
00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:59,480
it, and I think it's turned on. If we

43
00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:03,030
scroll down again, indeed, and if you ever

44
00:02:03,030 --> 00:02:04,750
want to turn it off, you can simply

45
00:02:04,750 --> 00:02:07,120
deactivate. But that's it. That's all we

46
00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:10,040
had to do. Now, if we go back and we're

47
00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:12,130
gonna have to go back a couple of steps

48
00:02:12,130 --> 00:02:19,640
here, you will have to refresh. Now we see

49
00:02:19,640 --> 00:02:23,160
site policies and content type policy

50
00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:25,370
templates. These are the two things

51
00:02:25,370 --> 00:02:29,150
specifically that we're looking for, and

52
00:02:29,150 --> 00:02:31,140
when we go to site policies, you'll see

53
00:02:31,140 --> 00:02:34,030
here we have the ability to create site

54
00:02:34,030 --> 00:02:36,240
policy, but that's another lesson for

55
00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:39,940
another day. Now you know how to activate

56
00:02:39,940 --> 00:02:42,630
site policy creation. That's it for this

57
00:02:42,630 --> 00:02:52,000
lesson. Thanks for listening, and I'll see you next time.
