There are no specific version requirements.
Activities Captured
The following activities are captured:
- Room ID.
- Start Time.
- Message content.
- Participants.
- Participant Entered & Left.
- Message date
- Disclaimers
Metadata
In addition to standard metadata populated during extracting data, this Data Source captures the following ones:
- DATE - start date of a chat or start date of a slice in the chat split into slices.
- SUBJECT - friendly name of the team and channel.
- FROM - the first person to send a message in that respective slice.
- TO - chat attendees.
- CONVERSATION-ID - the unique identifier. When creating a Data Mapping, set “Read From Other Metadata Column” to Yes.
- X-RSMF-EndDate - end date of the chat / slice. When creating a Data Mapping, set “Read From Other Metadata Column” to Yes.
- X-RSMF-EventCount - number of messages in the chat / slice. When creating a Data Mapping, set “Read From Other Metadata Column” to Yes.
- X-RSMF-AttachmentCount – number of attachments in the chat / slice. When creating a Data Mapping, set “Read From Other Metadata Column” to Yes.
Document View
ICE Chat messages are captured as RMFS (Relativity Short Message Format) files. Relativity has created a Viewer experience to help reviewing RSMF data. See Relativity Short Message Format for more details.
Data Filtering
There are two levels of filtering data:
-
Data Source - Data is being filtered according to specified Monitored Individuals (MI). No filter is applied at the message level. So, if MI exists in a channel, we will ingest the whole conversation for a given slice. If the conversation does not have any MIs in participants for that day, we do not ingest conversation at all.
-
Data Batch - Only messages with data for the date that matches Data Batch collection period will be captured. For example, a message that has been exported for 10/1/2021 will be captured by the Data Batch that has collection period from “10/1/2021 00:00” to “10/2/2021 00:00”.
