Backups

Data You Can Back Up

  • Folders

  • OneDrive for Business accounts

  • OneNote files

  • Files shared in a private Team conversations or group chats

Backups You Can Perform

Forever incremental backups

When You Can Perform Backups

  • On a schedule: The server plan that you assign manages scheduled backups

  • On demand: You can perform on-demand backups at any time

Restores

Backups You Can Use for Restores

  • The most recent backup: For example, restore the most recent backup to its original location

  • A backup from a specific date: For example, restore data to a point in time before it became unusable

  • Backups from a date range: For example, restore data that was accidentally deleted

Microsoft Purview labels associated with the original content are retained during restore.

Destinations You Can Restore To

  • The current location (in place)

  • A different folder on the same app (out of place)

  • A different OneDrive for Business app (out of place)

  • A disk

Considerations

Items that are protected by Microsoft's Data-Loss Prevention (DLP) policies cannot be backed up. If you wish to back up these items, please edit the criteria of the DLP policy or delete the policy. Items protected by the DLP policy will have a DLP Policy Symbol symbol next to the file name, in the Name column.
