5.13 Social Media Governance Module

The Social Media Governance module allows Retain to archive Social Messaging communications from WhatsApp and WeChat. Retain integrates with Micro Focus Social Media Governance (SMG) for the archived Social Messaging communications. You need to know the SMG server URL and then the Client ID, Client Secret, User name, and Password provided to you when you purchased SMG to connect Retain to SMG.
