Step 5. Specify SharePoint Online, OneDrive for Business and Microsoft Teams Credentials

This step is only available if you did not select the Use the same credentials for SharePoint Online, OneDrive for Business and Microsoft Teams check box at the Specify Exchange Online Credentials step of the wizard.

At this step of the wizard, enter credentials to connect to the Microsoft SharePoint Online organization. Keep in mind that if you plan to back up Microsoft Teams data, Veeam Backup for Microsoft Office 365 will also use these credentials to connect to Microsoft Teams.

To enter credentials, do the following:

1. In the Username and Password fields, specify authentication credentials to connect to the Microsoft Office 365 organization.

The user account must be provided in either of the following formats: user@domain.com or user@domain.onmicrosoft.com. If you are using an ADFS account, you can only use a non-MFA enabled ADFS account.

2. Select the Grant this account required roles and permissions check box to automatically assign the Site Collection Administrator role that is required to back up Microsoft SharePoint Sites.
