Re-Archiving Android Capture Data

Re-Archiving is a feature designed to retrieve historical data that was not archived due to specific circumstances. This process ensures that all critical data is accounted for, supporting compliance and investigative needs. Re-Archiving is especially useful in addressing gaps caused by delays in application installation, technical issues, or intentional actions to bypass archiving.

Re-Archiving ensures that:

• No critical data is lost due to archiving gaps.

• Compliance standards are met, even in challenging scenarios.

• Administrators have a streamlined way to recover missed data for defined periods.

Types of Re-Archiving

Re-Archiving can be performed in two ways:

• Manual Re-Archiving: This is a user-initiated process where administrators must request support to recover specific data for selected users and date ranges. The selected date range can span a maximum of six months. For example, if the start date is 02 August 2024, the end date must be within the six-month period, such as 01 February 2025. For more information, see Manual Re-Archiving

• Automatic Re-Archiving: This is a system-triggered process that automatically addresses data gaps during specific events, such as new installations or re-installations of the Android Capture application. For more information, see Automatic Re-Archiving
