Control 3.3: eDiscovery for Copilot-Generated Content
Control ID: 3.3 Pillar: Compliance & Audit Regulatory Reference: SEC 17a-4 (Preservation of Records), FINRA 4511 (Books and Records), Federal Rules of Civil Procedure (FRCP) Rules 26, 34, 37(e) Last Verified: 2026-06-05 Governance Levels: Baseline / Recommended / Regulated
Objective
Configure Microsoft Purview eDiscovery to search, hold, review, and export Copilot-generated content across all Microsoft 365 workloads, supporting compliance with regulatory examination requests, litigation discovery obligations, and internal investigation requirements.
Why This Matters for FSI
Financial services firms face frequent discovery obligations -- from FINRA and SEC examinations, to civil litigation, to internal compliance investigations. When Copilot is integrated into daily workflows, the universe of potentially discoverable content expands to include every Copilot interaction, every AI-generated draft, every meeting recap, and every Microsoft 365 Copilot Chat conversation.
SEC Rule 17a-4 requires that records be readily accessible and producible upon regulatory demand. SEC Rule 17a-4(j) specifically requires that broker-dealers produce records stored on electronic media in response to SEC examination requests, including AI-generated interaction records. FINRA Rule 4511 requires that books and records be made available for examination. The Federal Rules of Civil Procedure (FRCP) impose broad discovery obligations that extend to electronically stored information (ESI), including AI-generated content. FRCP Rule 26(b)(1) establishes a proportionality standard requiring that discovery be proportional to the needs of the case -- a standard that applies with particular force as the scope of discoverable Copilot content grows across an organization.
Failure to locate and produce Copilot-generated content during discovery can result in adverse inference instructions, sanctions, regulatory penalties, and reputational harm. Microsoft Purview eDiscovery provides the native capability to search across all Copilot content locations, but it requires deliberate configuration to cover the full scope of Copilot data.
Control Description
This control addresses the end-to-end eDiscovery lifecycle for Copilot content: identifying custodians and content locations, creating cases and holds, running searches across Copilot data sources, reviewing results, and exporting production-ready content.
Microsoft Purview eDiscovery Experience and Capability Tiers
Microsoft Learn currently describes three Microsoft Purview eDiscovery solutions: Content search, eDiscovery (Standard), and eDiscovery (Premium). These are capability and licensing distinctions, not separate Copilot search locations. The Purview portal presents eDiscovery through a common case-oriented experience, while role assignments and licensing determine whether reviewers can use Standard case/hold workflows or Premium custodian management, review sets, analytics, and predictive coding.
For Copilot investigations, reviewers should create or open an eDiscovery case in the Microsoft Purview portal, then add the Microsoft 365 Copilot interactions data source from Sources > Add data sources > Microsoft 365 Copilot interactions. Pair that Copilot data source with the custodian's Exchange mailbox because Microsoft documents user prompts and responses from AI applications as mailbox-stored items that are discoverable by item class.
Classic eDiscovery Retirement (August 31, 2025) and Export/Automation Changes
Microsoft retired all classic eDiscovery experiences on August 31, 2025, including classic Content search, classic eDiscovery (Standard), and classic eDiscovery (Premium). The classic standalone tools and their dedicated portals are no longer available in commercial cloud. This is a retirement of the classic experiences, not of the Content search / Standard / Premium capability and licensing tiers themselves: the current unified Microsoft Purview eDiscovery experience continues to provide Content search, eDiscovery (Standard), and eDiscovery (Premium) capabilities through a common case-oriented portal. Organizations should verify they are using the current Purview eDiscovery experience and should migrate any saved searches, holds, or runbooks that referenced the classic tools.
The key cloud-tenant export change is automation: New-ComplianceSearchAction -Export examples and export parameters are now documented as functional only in on-premises Exchange. Cloud export workflows should use the Purview portal export/download experience, eDiscovery APIs, or another Microsoft-documented workflow that has been validated for the tenant.
- Portal workflow: Run the search in the case, add responsive material to a review set when using Premium, then export from the portal using supported export options.
- Export formats: Standard exports support PST for mailbox items and native files for SharePoint/OneDrive content. Premium review workflows can support production sets and redacted PDF output. Copilot interaction exports should be validated as JSON or PST depending on the selected Microsoft workflow and requester requirements.
- Script migration action: Inventory scripts that still call
New-ComplianceSearchAction -Exportand replace the export step with documented portal or API procedures. Organizations should verify export chain-of-custody, format readability, and retention of export logs before relying on the updated process for examinations or litigation.
Case-Centric Access Model
Formal eDiscovery cases provide stronger access control and auditability than ad hoc searches. Use cases for Copilot investigations whenever the matter involves regulatory examinations, litigation, internal investigations, legal hold, or production.
- FSI governance impact: Case-level searches provide a clearer audit trail for FINRA and SEC examinations and allow response teams to demonstrate who created searches, reviewed results, and exported content.
- Access control: Case membership limits who can access searches and results. This is important for privileged investigations, employee conduct reviews, and matters involving material nonpublic information.
Copilot Content Locations in eDiscovery
| Content Type | eDiscovery source or location | Search method / item class |
|---|---|---|
| Microsoft 365 Copilot interactions | Microsoft 365 Copilot interactions data source plus custodian Exchange mailbox | Item class condition: Copilot activity; KQL fallback: itemclass:IPM.SkypeTeams.Message.Copilot.* |
| Microsoft 365 Copilot Chat / BizChat | Exchange mailbox | itemclass:IPM.SkypeTeams.Message.Copilot.BizChat |
| Copilot personalization and memory | Exchange mailbox contact items | itemclass:IPM.Contact; memory must be searched separately from conversation items |
| Copilot Studio interactions | Exchange mailbox | itemclass:IPM.SkypeTeams.Message.Copilot.Studio.* |
| Teams Copilot interactions and meeting recaps | Teams messages / Exchange mailbox | itemclass:IPM.SkypeTeams.Message.Copilot.Teams |
| Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, OneNote, SharePoint, Whiteboard Copilot activity | Exchange mailbox plus workload storage as applicable | Workload-specific Copilot item classes such as IPM.SkypeTeams.Message.Copilot.Word, .Excel, .Powerpoint, .Outlook, .OneNote, .SharePoint, .Whiteboard |
| Copilot Pages and Loop content | SharePoint Embedded / Loop storage plus mailbox interaction records | Site or container search for native content; itemclass:IPM.SkypeTeams.Message.Copilot.Loop for Loop interaction records |
| Copilot-drafted documents and emails | SharePoint, OneDrive, Exchange mailbox | Standard file, message, author, and date conditions |
| Copilot audit events | Purview Audit Log | Audit log search, separate from eDiscovery content search |
eDiscovery Capability Tiers in the Current Purview Experience
The current Purview experience provides a common entry point for eDiscovery work, while capabilities remain tiered:
| Capability | Content search | eDiscovery (Standard) | eDiscovery (Premium) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Search across Microsoft 365 workloads | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| Case management | No | Yes | Yes |
| Legal hold | No | Yes | Yes -- with custodian and non-custodial data source management |
| Microsoft 365 Copilot interactions data source | Searchable by mailbox/item class | Yes | Yes |
| Review sets | No | No | Yes -- filtering, tagging, analytics, themes, and relevance workflows |
| AI-assisted review | No | No | Yes -- Premium review analytics and AI-powered relevance/theme capabilities over Microsoft Search-indexed review-set content |
| Export formats | PST, individual messages, native files | PST, individual messages, native files | PST, native files, production sets, redacted PDF where configured; Copilot interactions should be validated as JSON or PST for the selected workflow |
For regulated FSI environments, eDiscovery (Premium) is strongly recommended for custodian management, legal hold notices, review-set analytics, AI-assisted relevance/theme review, and production capabilities.
Item-Class Search for Copilot and AI Data
Microsoft's current guidance directs reviewers to use the Item class condition and select Copilot activity when building a search for AI application data. This condition is preferred for the broadest collection because Microsoft stores user prompts and responses from supported AI applications in the user's mailbox and indexes them by item class.
Use item-class KQL only where the portal or API workflow requires a query string, and validate each query in the current Purview condition builder before relying on it for a legal or regulatory matter.
Search Microsoft 365 Copilot interactions for a specific user:
Search Microsoft 365 Copilot Chat / BizChat conversations containing specific terms:
Search Copilot Studio interactions:
Search Copilot memory items:
Search Copilot Pages or Loop native content:
Search, Deletion, and Memory Caveats
- Use Purview portal > eDiscovery > [case] > Sources > Add data sources > Microsoft 365 Copilot interactions to add the Copilot data source, then pair it with custodian mailboxes and relevant SharePoint/OneDrive locations.
- For broad AI data searches, start with the Item class condition and Copilot activity, then narrow by custodian, date range, keywords, and workload-specific item classes.
- If a matter requires deletion of AI data, follow the AI Data Search-and-Delete Runbook below.
- Copilot memories are stored as
IPM.Contactitems. Deleting a Copilot conversation or message from Microsoft Purview or eDiscovery does not delete the associated Copilot memory; memory must be searched and handled separately.
AI Data Search-and-Delete Runbook
When a matter requires deletion of Copilot or AI-generated data — such as a data spillage incident, regulatory remediation, or litigation-driven purge — organizations should follow this structured workflow. This runbook covers the end-to-end process from search through verified deletion.
Legal Coordination Required
AI data deletion is an event-response workflow that should be coordinated with legal counsel and records management. Do not proceed with deletion without documented legal authorization.
Step 1 — Identify responsive AI data by item class
Use item-class conditions to target the specific Copilot data types that require deletion:
| Item Class | Data Type | When to Include |
|---|---|---|
IPM.SkypeTeams.Message.Copilot.* |
All Microsoft 365 Copilot interactions | Broad Copilot data collection |
IPM.SkypeTeams.Message.Copilot.BizChat |
Microsoft 365 Copilot Chat / BizChat | Chat-specific data spillage or remediation |
IPM.SkypeTeams.Message.Copilot.Teams |
Teams Copilot interactions | Teams-specific investigation |
IPM.SkypeTeams.Message.Copilot.Word |
Word Copilot interaction records | Document-creation investigation |
IPM.SkypeTeams.Message.Copilot.Excel |
Excel Copilot interaction records | Workbook-related investigation |
IPM.SkypeTeams.Message.Copilot.Outlook |
Outlook Copilot interaction records | Email-related investigation |
IPM.SkypeTeams.Message.Copilot.Studio.* |
Copilot Studio agent interactions | Custom agent investigation |
IPM.Contact |
Copilot personalization and memory | Memory-specific search or spillage response |
Run the eDiscovery search using the Item class condition with Copilot activity in the Purview portal, then narrow by specific item classes, custodian, and date range as needed.
Step 2 — Inventory conflicting holds and retention policies
Before any deletion can proceed, identify all holds and retention policies that apply to the target mailboxes and locations:
- In the Microsoft Purview portal, review the custodian's mailbox for active holds (eDiscovery holds, litigation holds, and retention policies)
- Document each hold's name, scope, and owning case or policy
- Determine whether each hold must be temporarily removed to allow deletion, or whether the hold should take precedence and block deletion
- Obtain documented legal approval before removing any hold
Step 3 — Temporarily remove conflicting holds or retention policies
If legal counsel authorizes deletion despite existing holds:
- Remove or exclude the target mailbox from each conflicting hold or retention policy
- Document the exact holds removed, the removal time, and the authorizing attorney or compliance officer
- Allow 24–48 hours for the hold removal to propagate before proceeding with deletion
Reapply Holds Promptly
Failure to reapply holds after deletion is a records-management and litigation risk. Schedule reapplication immediately after deletion verification.
Step 4 — Execute deletion using Microsoft Graph purge workflow
Microsoft documents a Search And Purge workflow that uses Microsoft Graph to delete AI application data identified through eDiscovery. Key constraints:
| Constraint | Detail |
|---|---|
| 10-item-per-mailbox limit | Each purge operation can remove a maximum of 10 items per mailbox. If more items require deletion, the purge must be run in multiple batches. |
| Role requirement | The operator must hold the Search And Purge role in Microsoft Purview |
| Scope | Purge targets items identified by the eDiscovery search; verify the search scope before executing |
| Audit trail | Each purge operation is logged in the Unified Audit Log |
Execute the purge:
- Confirm the eDiscovery search returns only the items authorized for deletion
- Initiate the Microsoft Graph purge operation targeting the search results
- If the target mailbox contains more than 10 responsive items, run the purge in batches of 10 until all authorized items are removed
- Document each batch: items targeted, items deleted, operator identity, and timestamp
Step 5 — Handle Copilot memory separately
Copilot personalization and memory items (IPM.Contact) are not deleted when Copilot conversation or message items are purged. Memory must be addressed as a separate deletion step:
- Run an
itemclass:IPM.Contactsearch against the custodian's mailbox to identify Copilot memory items - Review memory items for relevance to the deletion matter
- If memory items are in scope, execute a separate purge targeting the memory items (subject to the same 10-item-per-mailbox limit)
- Document whether memory deletion was required, performed, or determined to be out of scope for the matter
Step 6 — Reapply holds and retention policies
After deletion is verified:
- Reapply each hold and retention policy that was removed in Step 3
- Verify that holds are active and properly scoped
- Document the reapplication time and confirm that the hold gap window is recorded for legal and records management review
Step 7 — Verify and document
- Re-run the original eDiscovery search to confirm that deleted items no longer appear in search results
- Review the Unified Audit Log for purge operation records
- Document the complete deletion workflow: authorization, search scope, holds removed, items deleted (by batch), memory handling, holds reapplied, and verification results
- File the deletion record with the originating case or matter

- Preserve export logs, manifests, hashes, and handler identification for chain-of-custody evidence
Financial Sector Considerations
FINRA Examination Response
FINRA examinations frequently request records of business communications, including AI-assisted communications. Pre-built eDiscovery cases with saved Copilot search queries can reduce response time from days to hours. Firms should maintain:
- A template case for FINRA Rule 8210 information requests
- Pre-configured custodian groups for registered representatives, supervisors, and compliance officers
- Standard export formats that align with FINRA's preferred production formats
SEC Examination Response
SEC examinations may request documentation of internal controls over AI usage, including records of Copilot interactions related to financial reporting, client advisory activities, and investment decision-making. SEC Rule 17a-4(j) requires production of electronically stored records in response to SEC examination requests in a form that is readable by examiners. eDiscovery cases should be structured to produce:
- Copilot interactions by specific individuals during specific time periods
- Copilot interactions related to specific clients, transactions, or investment products
- All Copilot-generated documents classified as financial records
Litigation Readiness
In civil litigation, Copilot content is discoverable ESI. FRCP Rule 26(b)(1) requires that discovery be proportional to the needs of the case, considering factors including the importance of the issues, the amount in controversy, and the parties' resources -- but proportionality does not reduce the firm's obligation to identify and preserve potentially relevant Copilot content. Firms should:
- Include Copilot content locations in their standard litigation hold procedures
- Update ESI protocols and agreements to explicitly address AI-generated content
- Prepare for opposing counsel requests that specifically target Copilot interactions
- Document Copilot content preservation capabilities for Rule 26(f) conferences
Privilege Considerations
Copilot interactions with legal counsel or Copilot-generated content involving legal analysis may be protected by attorney-client privilege. eDiscovery review workflows should include privilege review screens for Copilot content that references legal matters, compliance investigations, or attorney communications.

Advisory: Copilot Memory in eDiscovery Scope
Search Memory Separately
Microsoft documents Copilot personalization and memory as IPM.Contact mailbox items. Deleting a Copilot conversation or message from Microsoft Purview or eDiscovery does not delete the associated Copilot memory.
eDiscovery implications for FSI:
- Content discoverability: Organizations should include
IPM.Contactsearches in Copilot eDiscovery procedures when memory may be responsive to FINRA 8210 requests, SEC examinations, internal investigations, or civil litigation. - Custodian holds: When placing custodians on legal hold, organizations should confirm that mailbox holds and Copilot data source holds cover memory items or document any separate preservation steps.
- Deletion workflow: AI-data deletion is an event-response workflow that requires legal approval, Search And Purge authorization, temporary hold/retention review, Microsoft Graph purge steps, and reapplication of any required holds or retention policies.
- Data mapping: Copilot memory should be included in the organization's data map for litigation readiness. The Federal Rules of Civil Procedure Rule 26(f) conference obligations include identifying all relevant data sources, which may include Copilot memory.
- Cross-reference: Organizations should coordinate with Control 3.2 — Data Retention so memory content is addressed consistently across retention and eDiscovery procedures.
Recommended actions:
- Test
itemclass:IPM.Contactsearches for custodians who use Copilot personalization or memory - Include Copilot memory in litigation readiness checklists and data source inventories
- Document whether the matter requires preservation, review, export, or deletion of memory items
- Update FINRA 8210 response procedures to address Copilot memory as a potential data source
