Microsoft Graph Data Policy Operations
Microsoft Graph Data Policy Operations is the mechanism Microsoft Graph uses to represent and track long-running, privacy- and compliance-related tasks, most commonly exporting a users personal data. When you start an action like exportPersonalData, Graph creates a dataPolicyOperation resource that you can poll to monitor status and progress, inspect errors, and, when finished, obtain the storage location link to download the results. You can also list operations across the tenant to monitor and audit requests. This enables organizations to automate subject-rights workflows (such as GDPR/CCPA data export) across Microsoft 365 services through a consistent, asynchronous API.
