Filtering behaviors

Tabs

When you select the Groups tab, the list displays all your tenant's Microsoft 365 groups and teams. This is because a group can be created without an associated team, while each team created has an associated Microsoft 365 group.

Tip: From the team and group details, you can see if Teams is one of the Apps used by a group.

Filters drawer

When you apply multiple filters within the same feature (e.g., Privacy settings, Purpose, Activity status, etc.), the list will display all the teams or groups with at least one of the attributes selected.

For example, if you select Privacy settings > Private and Privacy settings > Public, the Manage page list will display all teams or groups that are Private and also all the teams or groups that are Public. This cumulative behavior is designed to help you refine the list for multiple attributes at one time.

When you apply multiple filters across different features, the list will display the teams and/or groups with both of the attributes selected.

For example, if you select Activity status > Inactive and Apps used > Outlook Email, the Manage page list will display inactive teams or groups and use Outlook email. This behavior is designed to help you refine the list for specific combinations of attributes.

Tip: Use the list Total teams/groups and the attribute totals shown in the filters drawer to better understand the filtering behavior.

Ask owner(s) status

With ShareGate Protect, you can collaborate with team and group owners to take action on governance policies---keeping your Microsoft environment organized and secure.

You can ask owners to take action in three ways: Automatically through the External sharing review policy and Inactivity detection policy; automatically via purpose tags and sensitivity tags; and manually using the Ask owner(s) feature.

The filter Ask owner(s) status considers notifications sent to owners through all three collaboration methods.

Tip: For more details about the different statuses, see Review status as an example.

Add or remove columns

  1. Click Add/remove columns to open the select columns drawer. You can customize the columns of your currently selected view.

  2. Select the checkbox next to the columns you want to add and clear the checkbox next to columns you want to remove.

  3. Click Apply. Applied changes are saved to a view until updated again.

  4. To go back to the view's default columns, click Reset, then Apply.

Column adjustments are reflected in exports.

Tip: You can add or remove columns from tile views or the default view with no tile selected.
