How to Add a New Source Hold
Once data is collected into Onna you may need to place that data on hold. You’re able to create source holds in the following ways:
- Place entire sources on hold
- Place all sources that have been added by a specific Onna user on hold.
The source holds feature is particularly helpful for retaining information that would otherwise be removed from Onna due to retention policies in the native application, Slack Enterprise mirror syncs, and retention policies set in Onna. This means that, regardless of any retention policies set, data included in a source hold within Onna will remain in Onna until you decide to remove it.
If you want to retain data from specific custodians in Slack Enterprise, Google Workspace, Quip Enterprise, or Microsoft Teams Enterprise, it is recommended that you use the Preservation feature rather than the Source Hold feature.
Please Note: In order to use the Source Hold feature, the data you want to retain must already be in Onna.
To add a new source hold follow the steps below:
Step 1To begin, click on ‘Source hold’ in the main menu. |
|
Step 2Once on the ‘Source hold’ page, click on the ‘+’ icon in the upper right corner of the screen. |
|
Step 3You’ll now see the ‘Create new source hold’ window appear. In this window you’ll first name your new source hold in the ‘Source hold name’ field (a). Then, click the blue ‘Next’ button in the lower right corner of the window (b). |
|
Step 4On the next page, you’ll select the Onna users who are the owners of the sources you want to place on hold. To select users you can either type their name in the search bar at the top of the window (a), select users from a CSV (b), select all users listed (c), or select individual users from the list by putting a checkmark next to their name (d). |
|
Step 5You’ll then decide if you want to notify users that their sources have been put on hold. If so, put a check in the box next to ‘Notify source hold to users’ (a). Then, click on the blue ‘Next’ button in the bottom right corner of the window (b). |
|
Step 6On the next screen you’ll decide which sources, associated with the users you selected in step 4, you’d like to place on hold. Put a check in the box next to all sources you want to include in the source hold (a). Then, click on the blue ‘Done’ button in the bottom right corner of the screen (b). |
|
Step 7You’ll now see your new source hold appear in your list of source holds. |

How to View Source Hold Details
Once you’ve created a source hold it is possible to view the details of that source hold. The data you’re able to view includes:
- Total files- total number of files
- Total Data- total size of the files
- Started on- date and time the legal hold started
- Finished on- date and time the legal hold was set to finish

How to View and Search Held Sources
After creating your source hold, you’re able to view all the data included within that hold and search across only that data.
When a source is under legal hold, new files can still be added to the source. If an updated file replaces an existing file, the new updated file is synced and the previous version(s) of that file are tracked. See our file versioning guide for more information.
To view held sources, follow the steps below:
Step 1To begin, click on ‘Source hold’ in the main menu (a). Then, click on the ellipsis to the right of the source hold you want to view held sources for (b). |

Step 2From the menu that appears, select ‘View held sources’. |
|
Step 3You’ll then be directed to all files associated with sources included in this hold. From here you’re able to search across only the data included in this hold. |

How to Finish a Source Hold
To end a source hold, you must return to the ‘Source hold’ section and end that source hold manually. Once a source hold is finished the data associated with the sources that were included, will then follow typical retention settings related to that data and will be able to be removed from Onna.
