Purpose tags help you understand the business purpose of teams and groups in your environment at-a-glance. Keep your tenant organized and secure by collaborating with team and group owners.
Create purpose tags that are suited to the types of work done in your organization. Then, use ShareGate to collaborate with owners on your behalf. Owners can choose the purpose tag they feel best represents the business purpose of the teams and groups they create, giving you visibility.
Set up custom inactivity detection based on the business needs of teams and groups, so owners can take action at the right time.
