Summary:
Stream (Classic) will be retired on April 15, 2024, and all unmigrated videos will be deleted. Admins must migrate their tenant's Stream (Classic) data to Stream (on SharePoint) before the retirement date to prevent data loss. Stream (on SharePoint) offers many capabilities, including recording and playing videos directly in many everyday work and school apps, managing video files with the same security and admin controls as the rest of your files in SharePoint and OneDrive, and searching for videos anywhere in Microsoft 365.

Details:
Microsoft will retire Stream (Classic) on April 15, 2024 and all videos on Stream (Classic) will be deleted after the retirement date. Stream (Classic) has already been auto disabled for end users, and admins can delay this change till the retirement date. Admins must migrate their tenant's Stream (Classic) data to Stream (on SharePoint) before the retirement date to prevent data loss.
Stream (Classic)'s successor service, Stream (on SharePoint), entered general availability in October 2022. We recommend that you:
begin using Stream (on SharePoint)
direct your users to upload videos to SharePoint, Teams, OneDrive, and Yammer
put a plan in place for migration.
[What you need to do to prepare:]
Migrating your content from Stream (Classic):
All your existing Stream (Classic) videos can be transferred to Stream (on SharePoint) to take advantage of Stream's rich integration within Microsoft 365. To support your move to Stream (on SharePoint) we have created migration tool that allows you to transfer your videos to SharePoint while also bringing over metadata, links and permissions associated with your videos.
