OneDrive Discovery: Include Scopes

By default, the discovery collects information from the drives you specify. You can change the scope to collect all drives. For full information on using the browser to add scopes, see Step 2b: Choose scopes for your cloud discoveries .

To specify whether to collect all drives or only specific drives
•
Select Collect only selected drives to explicitly include individual drives in the scope.
This option is recommended when the majority of the drives on the target tenant do not need to be collected. For more information, see To explicitly include objects in your OneDrive scope .
- OR-
•
Select Collect all drives with the option to exclude selected drives to collect all available information from most or all of the drives on the target tenant.
This option is recommended when the majority of the drives on the target tenant must be collected. For more information, see OneDrive Discovery: Optionally refine your scope list with exclusions .

OneDrive Discovery: Decide what to collect from the drives in the discovery

Basic information from the tenant (the tenant name and full LDAP path) is always collected.

The following table outlines the additional information that can be collected. Collecting additional information impacts discovery performance. Options with a high performance cost will slow discovery performance more than options with a medium or low performance cost.

Notes

Active Thread Maximum

You can adjust the maximum number of threads that can be running at any one time when extracting OneDrive data for folders and files. Increasing the number of threads may improve performance but could increase the chance of receiving a throttling delay from Microsoft. We recommend using the default threading value.

 
* 
NOTE: Microsoft 365 discoveries support both Multi-Factor Authentication enabled and disabled credentials. However, using Multi-Factor Authentication enabled credentials on Microsoft 365 discoveries can result in an incomplete collection that omits one or more objects and attributes. For more information, see Multi-Factor Authentication Discovery Credential Limitations .

Choosing Your SharePoint Online Scopes

SharePoint Online discoveries, by default, target the tenant that you specified with the credentials on the Name page in Step 1. Create the Discovery (Name) . Information about your SharePoint Online objects is collected based on the discovery options.
