Getting Started

Veeam Explorers is a set of applications that allows you to manage application items from the following sources:

• Backups or and replicas created with Veeam Backup & Replication
• Backups created with Veeam Backup for Microsoft Office 365

Every set of Veeam Explorer applications comes with its own PowerShell extension. Each extension includes a Microsoft Windows PowerShell module that provides a set of PowerShell cmdlets and allows you to allows you to perform the following operations:

• Recover application items
• Export application items
• Publish and unpublish databases

The following modules are installed by default with Veeam Explorers:

• Veeam.Exchange.PowerShell as part of Veeam Explorer for Microsoft Exchange

• Veeam.Sharepoint.PowerShell as part of Veeam Explorer for Microsoft SharePoint and Veeam Explorer for Microsoft OneDrive for Business

• Veeam.Oracle.PowerShell as part of Veeam Explorer for Oracle

• Veeam.SQL.PowerShell as part of Veeam Explorer for Microsoft SQL Server

Requirements

A machine that runs PowerShell session must have Windows PowerShell version 2.0 or later installed. We recommend that you use Windows PowerShell version 4.0 or later as it is more reliable for performing actions with Veeam Explorers PowerShell cmdlets.
