Microsoft 365 file-level archive: Your questions answered by the Microsoft team that builds it
Microsoft has shipped a ton of new features in 2026, but the one most admins and leaders are excited about is file-level archive in Microsoft 365 Archive. These new capabilities let companies save on storage costs while also improving SharePoint search and Microsoft 365 Copilot answer quality.
What will you learn
As with every new feature, you probably have questions. So for this webinar, we brought in a special guest: Trent Green, a Principal Product Manager at Microsoft on the OneDrive and SharePoint team, where he helps build the Microsoft 365 Archive and Backup products.
Microsoft 365 File-Level Archive in practice
Trent Green from Microsoft will go deep on the technical side of how file-level archive actually works: why Microsoft built it, what happens to a file the moment it's archived, how it differs from site-level archive, and how you control it across your sites. He'll also cover what archiving means for search, Copilot, compliance, and your storage quota, and clear up the misconceptions clients often have about Microsoft 365 Archive.
Extra value from File-Level Archive with Syskit Point
We'll then look at how Syskit Point builds on top of it, with Matija Hanzic, Syskit PM, adding a layer for stale file detection, version history lifecycle management, and cleaner inputs for more reliable AI outcomes.
Questions & Answers
And it's not every day you get to put your questions directly to someone who builds the product, so bring your toughest Microsoft 365 Archive questions, and we'll get you the clarity you need before you turn it on in your environment!
Whether you're an admin who wants the technical detail before rolling this out, or a leader weighing the storage and AI investment from the top, you'll leave with practical guidance you can apply right away.
The webinar is hosted by Vlad Catrinescu, Microsoft MVP.
When: US Eastern, 12 PM EDT, October8
