Data Portability Coming to Microsoft 365 Organizational Data

Organizational data

Microsoft 365 is introducing a long-awaited capability to export organizational data from MODIS (Microsoft Organizational Data Ingestion Service).

Admins can now export raw organizational data directly from the admin portal in CSV format—within the 30-day retention window.

Tenant admins (Global Admin or Organizational Data Source Admin) can:

  • Export raw organizational data directly from MODIS
  • Download data in CSV format for audit or compliance needs
  • Access data within the 30-day retention period
  • Trigger exports directly from the MODIS experience

Key Technical Details

  • Only data within the 30-day retention window is available for export
  • Applies to both manual uploads and automated connector data
  • Role-based access: Global Admin or Organizational Data Source Admin
  • No impact on end users

This update brings much-needed data portability and transparency, enabling organizations to:

  • Maintain local copies for audits and compliance
  • Support migration and archival scenarios
  • Reduce dependency on in-service data storage

📅 Rollout: Late April 2026
