What it checks
SCuBA GWS.CHAT.3.1 requires that history for Chat spaces be always on so conversations are retained for oversight, investigation, and eDiscovery. This check reads chat.space_history and warns any organizational unit where space history is not set to HISTORY_ALWAYS_ON.
Recommended value
Chat space history set to HISTORY_ALWAYS_ON
Remediation
In Google Chat settings, set space history to always on so conversations are retained and available for oversight and eDiscovery.
