Videos stored in Panopto that have not been viewed for 13 months are Archived and no longer viewable without being restored. Restore Archived Content so that a video may be viewed. It may take up to 48 hours for the video to be unarchived and become viewable.
The following setting will be implemented on December 30, 2025
Panopto videos without any views are retained for three years (and therefore archived for 23 months) after which they will automatically be deleted. Content deleted out of the archive cannot be recovered.
Restoring videos out of the archive and viewing content will restart retention timers. Content that needs for be retained long-term (longer than three years without views) should be stored in a separate system intended for long-term storage. Services with storage options are available in the DIT Service Catalog.
