Description

Many organizations find it useful to keep a transcript of all the instant messaging (IM) sessions carried out by their users. Other organizations find it mandatory to keep such transcripts. For example, organizations in the financial world are often required by law to keep copies of all their electronic communications.

Regardless of the reason, Skype for Business Server gives you flexibility when it comes to archiving IM and conferencing sessions. If you have deployed Archiving Server, you can use the various CsArchivingConfiguration cmdlets to enable and disable instant message archiving and to manage your Archiving database. You can also suspend IM should archiving fail, which helps ensure that you keep a record of all your electronic communications.

If you have enabled archiving, records of your users' electronic communications are stored in the Archiving database. If you would like to view all of these records (or a selected subset of these records), you can use the Export-CsArchivingData cmdlet to extract these records from the database and save them as an Outlook Express Electronic Mail (EML) file (.EML file extension).

By default, members of the following groups are authorized to run the Export-CsArchivingData cmdlet locally: RTCUniversalServerAdmins. To return a list of all the role-based access control (RBAC) roles this cmdlet has been assigned to (including any custom RBAC roles you have created yourself), run the following command from the Windows PowerShell prompt:

Get-CsAdminRole | Where-Object {$_.Cmdlets -match "Export-CsArchivingData"}

Examples

-------------------------- Example 1 --------------------------

Export-CsArchivingData -Identity "ArchivingDatabase:atl-sql-001.litwareinc.com" -StartDate 6/1/2018 -OutputFolder "C:\ArchivingExports"

The command shown in Example 1 extracts records from the Archiving database located on the server atl-sql-001.litwareinc.com, and then saves the resulting EML file to the folder C:\ArchivingExports. The specified start date of June 1, 2018 (-StartDate 6/1/2018) ensures that only items recorded in the database after 5/31/2018 will be exported.

-------------------------- Example 2 --------------------------

Export-CsArchivingData -Identity "ArchivingDatabase:atl-sql-001.litwareinc.com" -StartDate 6/1/2018 -OutputFolder "C:\ArchivingExports" -UserUri "kenmyer@litwareinc.com"

Example 2 is a variation of the command shown in Example 1; in this case, however, only the records pertaining to the user Ken Myer are exported. To limit your export to records pertaining to a single user, include the UserUri parameter followed by appropriate SIP address.

-------------------------- Example 3 --------------------------

Export-CsArchivingData -Identity "ArchivingDatabase:atl-sql-001.litwareinc.com" -StartDate 6/1/2018 -EndDate 6/30/2018 -OutputFolder "C:\ArchivingExports"

Example 3 represents another variation of the command shown in Example 1. In Example 3, however, only items recorded in the database during the month of June, 2018 are exported. To limit exporting to this time interval, the EndDate parameter is included along with the StartDate parameter. With a start date of June 1, 2018 and an end date of June 30, 2018, exporting is limited to items recorded during June 2018.

-DBInstance

This parameter is intended for use only with Microsoft Lync Server 2010. If you are using the Export-CsArchivingData cmdlet on Skype for Business Server you should use the Identity parameter instead.

-EndDate

Indicates the latest activity date for records to be exported.
