SharePoint Recycle Bin Deleted By Column
Please bring back the column for Deleted By in the recyclebin for SharePoint Online. I have users who keep deleting files and we cannot easily determine who is doing so at this time.
I can see in articles it is a feature of SharePoint on prem, see here https://support.office.com/en-us/article/manage-the-recycle-bin-of-a-sharepoint-site-8a6c2198-910e-42dc-9a9c-bc5bc4f327da

Looks like you can still see it if you go to Bin via Site Settings: https://xxx.sharepoint.com/_layouts/15/AdminRecycleBin.aspx

Thanks Kam.amin! We can only hope this get heard. In the mean time, I had to go into the "View Log Reports" from the site collection recycle bin, export the "Deletion" report, then sort by from Excel to narrow down the document that got deleted. Hope this helps. Still isn't helpful for our user community in the least bit though as they do not have access to the audit logs.

Hello! This is my first time visiting this page and curious if "UserVoice" is affiliated with Microsoft in anyway to get this "voice" heard?
i.e. Does "Microsoft" gets the feed of ideas from this user community website?
The reason why above questions are because Brian's idea is about 6+ months old and the problem still exists!
Thank you. -

To be specific, the Deleted By column needs to be in the subsite recycle bin, where currently it is not. An administrator has to go into the site collection to help users find who deleted what.
