Search for Backed-Up Items

Veeam Backup for Microsoft Office 365 RESTful API allows you to search for items in backups of Microsoft Office 365 organization data. You can perform the following search operations:

• Search for Microsoft Exchange items in mailboxes and mailbox folders
• Search for Microsoft OneDrive for Business items in entire OneDrive storage and specific OneDrive folders
• Search for Microsoft SharePoint items in SharePoint sites, folders, libraries and lists

To search for items, use a POST HTTPS request of the following format:

where <path_to_resource> is a path to the resource that represents an object (for example, a mailbox, folder, site, library or list) where you want to search for backed-up items.

In the body of the request, provide the search action property with query parameters that define search criteria. Available query parameters differ for different type of items: Exchange items, SharePoint items and OneDrive for Business items.
