APAN Adobe Connect File Cleanup

Effective Monday, 04 December 2023

In an effort to bring Adobe Connect room content into compliance with the All Partners Access Network's (APAN) 2-year retention policy and prepare for the next upgrade, the APAN Support Team will begin deleting old files uploaded/saved to ADOBE CONNECT ROOMS ONLY.

 

What will be deleted during this cleanup?

The Adobe Connect File Cleanup will begin on Monday, 04 December 2023.  

The APAN Support Team will delete all documents and video recordings uploaded/saved on or before December 2021 from Adobe Connect rooms ONLY.

 

How do users prepare for this cleanup?

Adobe Connect hosts are encouraged to review the content stored in each Adobe Connect room they administer prior to 04 December 2023.

If Adobe Connect room hosts want to keep files uploaded or saved on or before 2021, it is their responsibility to download and save these files to a different location outside of APAN.

** Please note APAN Support will NOT download data for users.

 

Attention All APAN Users

All files deleted on and after 04 December 2023 cannot be recovered.
