Dear community,

We created an adaptive scope and a retention policy about two weeks ago. If I check the scope details on the Purview portal, the adaptive scope shows 9602 users, but the policy shows only ~9150 users. I tried to investigate the issue, but I haven’t found an error message or a list of users missing from the policy. I must find a way to list out the users who are not covered by the policy.

What I have done in a nutshell is: 

– Get-ComplianceRetentionPolicy does not see this policy. We have a few other policies with static scope, and they appear on the output, but the one we want to check is not.

– I collected all the mailboxes and checked the InPlaceHolds, but there is no such policy either. This is weird since we should have 9150 users covered by this policy.

– I checked a user who has this policy with the “Policy lookup” feature on the Purview portal, and it showed that the user is covered by the policy.

I googled, Copiloted, and ChatGPTd my question, but I still have no clue what to do.

The main question is: How can I query a list of users missing from a retention policy with adaptive scope? 

Thank you for your help in advance!
