Step 4. Enable Backup of Files and Attachments

[This step is available only if the Salesforce user that you have specified at step 2 is assigned the Query All Files permission in Salesforce]

Important

Veeam Backup for Salesforce 3.0 allows you to back up the MobileApplicationDetail and MailmergeTemplate type of content. However, restore of this type of content is not supported.

At the Files step of the wizard, you can choose types of files that you want to back up. To do that, click the link in the Backup files and attachments field and select the necessary file types in the File backup options window. Veeam Backup for Salesforce will display in the Repository location field the local directory on the management server that will be used to store the backed-up files.

Backup of the ContentVersion type of objects include backup of the ContentDocument, ContentVersion, ContentNote, ContentDocumentLink, FeedItem, FeedAttachment object types.

NoteS

  • If you choose to back up the ContentVersion type of objects, note that Veeam Backup for Salesforce will also back up the following types of objects: ContentDocument, ContentVersion, ContentNote, ContentDocumentLink, FeedItem, FeedAttachment.
  • For each protected organization, the product automatically creates a subfolder with a unique name containing the organization ID that cannot be modified. Therefore, if you remove a backup policy and then create a new policy for the same organization, Veeam Backup for Salesforce will use the same backup location for this organization.
  • If you remove a backup policy, data stored in the specified location will not be removed automatically. If you do not need the backed-up files and attachments anymore, you must delete them manually.
