Unused Site Report

The ShareGate migration tool determines that a site is unused when it has not been modified in the past 6 months.

To determine the last modified date of a site, the ShareGate migration tool uses the latest date from the following:

• Creation date of the site
• Creation date of a list in the site
• Last modified date of an item from a list in the site
• Last date an item was deleted from a list in the site

Tip: You can manage unused Microsoft 365 team sites associated with Microsoft 365 groups and archive them with their owner's permission in ShareGate. For more info, see Inactivity management features overview.
