When a team is deleted, all of its associated services (the mailbox, Planner, SharePoint site, team, etc.) are also deleted and are not recoverable after 30 days. Expired teams can be recovered within 30 days from the date they were deleted by sending a request to the IT Support Center or via the restore notification email that is sent to the team’s owner(s). Teams that have not been used for one year, and not manually renewed will be expired and deleted one day after the stated expiration date. If not, the team’s owner(s) are notified via email and in Teams to renew. Teams that have activity throughout the year will renew automatically.
