This plugin allows administrators to place one or more users on legal hold for a set period of time.

License

This repository is licensed under the [Mattermost Source Available License](LICENSE) and requires a valid Enterprise Edition License when used for production. See [frequently asked questions](https://docs.mattermost.com/overview/faq.html#mattermost-source-available-license) to learn more.

Although a valid Mattermost Enterprise Edition License is required if using this plugin in production, the [Mattermost Source Available License](LICENSE) allows you to compile and test this plugin in development and testing environments without a Mattermost Enterprise Edition License. As such, we welcome community contributions to this plugin.

If you're running an Enterprise Edition of Mattermost and don't already have a valid license, you can obtain a trial license from **System Console > Edition and License**. If you're running the Team Edition of Mattermost, including when you run the server directly from source, you may instead configure your server to enable both testing (`ServiceSettings.EnableTesting`) and developer mode (`ServiceSettings.EnableDeveloper`). These settings are not recommended in production environments.

How To Install

Download the latest released version and upload to your Mattermost installation on the plugins page of the System Console in the usual way.

  • Enable Plugin: controls whether the plugin is enabled. It must be enabled to use it.
  • Amazon S3 Bucket Settings: optionally use a separate S3 Bucket than the one configured for your Mattermost server.
