# Legal Holds Report

<div className="article_labels_list" style={{display: 'none'}} dangerouslySetInnerHTML={{__html: "Overview , Reporting , Admin , Article , Account Administration , Established"}} />

A Legal Hold report exports a list of all the files currently being held by an active [legal hold](/en/box-governance/legal-holds/about-legal-hold-policies).

To run a Legal Hold report:

1. Navigate to the **Admin Console**, then **Governance**.
2. Select the **Legal Holds** tab.
3. Hover over the relevant Legal Hold then click the **Report** button.

You can also, from the **Admin Console**, click into **Reports** > **Create Report** > **Legal Hold Content**, then hover over the relevant Legal Hold and click **Report**.

<Note>
  **Note**

  Legal hold policy reports contain data up to 48 hours prior to the report being generated. Updates to the report are processed asynchronously. There may, therefore, be temporary discrepancies in the report. If this occurs, wait a short time then run the report again.
