Updated this week

ShareGate Migrate stores your data in Microsoft Azure before it gets imported to Microsoft 365. Clearing the contents will delete all containers and queues that were created by ShareGate Migrate in this storage account. This operation cannot be undone and the data will be lost.

Any migrations using Insane mode should be completed before trying to clear the data.

Note: When using the default storage account, you cannot clear the data manually. Your data is automatically deleted after a maximum of one week.
