Create your archiving conditions

Managing SharePoint storage is about  strategic and smart archiving. With ShArc, you can create highly customized archiving conditions tailored to your organization’s real-world data usage.
 
Large project libraries, archived Teams channels, or unstructured departmental folders: ShArc allows you to define what data stays and what moves.

Take full control over what gets archived and when

Use a wide range of filters like:

  • File size (e.g., archived files larger than 50 MB)
  • Last modified or last accessed date (e.g., older than 12 months)

You can set different rules for different SharePoint sites or document libraries, allowing you to adapt the archiving behavior to the specific lifecycle of each data segment.

Before archiving, we recommend you to run a simulation with the conditions.

The result of archiving conditions and next steps

  • Smarter archiving
  • Leaner storage footprint
  • Version retention runs automatically during archiving

By fine-tuning your archiving strategy, you avoid one-size-fits-all cleanup processes and ensure that high-value content stays accessible while cold data quietly moves to low-cost Azure storage. It’s your data, your structure, just more efficient. 

ShArc offers you automated, rule-based archiving. Policy management allows you to establish fixed rules for your archiving.
