Remarks

Each entry in the report includes several fields of metadata. For more information, see Common metadata returned by the Office 365 Reporting web service.

The Date field indicates when the messages were handled by the Office 365 system, and are reported in the time zone of those servers.

Using StartDate and EndDate

The StartDate and EndDate fields do not provide useful information in the report results, and are always set to 0001-01-01T00:00:00Z in the report output. They are intended to enable easy restriction of the reporting time window, and provide finer precision than would be available in a "daily" report.

This can be especially helpful, for example, when recording email DLP policy and rule processing activity on an hourly basis. When using these fields, you must include both StartDate and EndDate fields in the $filter option. They are both considered optional, but if you provide one, you have to provide the other. If the StartDate/EndDate pair are not provided in the query, the default reporting time period is the previous two weeks.

Examples

No examples are provided for this report at this time.

Input parameters and report output columns

The [In/Out] indicators in the fields table have the following meanings:

Fields marked [In] in the fields table are primarily intended for use in $filter=, $orderby= and other query options that restrict which entries the report returns. Fields marked [In] in the fields table can be included the $select= option, and they will appear in the report entries, but they will contain no useful data.
Fields marked [In/Out] in the fields table can be used in both column selection ($select=) and entry restriction ($filter= and $orderby=) options. When you include one of these fields in the $select= option, they will appear in the report entries, and will contain useful data when it is available.

Compatibility

The MailDetailDlpPolicy report was introduced in Office 365 service version 2013-V1. For more information about versioning, see Versioning in the Office 365 Reporting web service.

Corresponding PowerShell cmdlets

The MailDetailDlpPolicy report returns the same information as the Get-MailDetailDlpPolicyReport Windows PowerShell cmdlet.

Data granularity, persistence, and availability

Information available in this report contains the exact date and time for each event. You can use any feasible time-period and duration by including the StartDate and EndDate fields in the $filter option. Times are reported in the time zone of the server scanning the email.

The information for this report is available for a period of 7 days, or until the subscription is cancelled.

Events may be delayed by up to 24 hours before they appear in a report.
