## Detailed Description
This cmdlet returns restore points stored in Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365. Once you get restore points, you can do the following:

- Start restore sessions to explore and restore backed-up Microsoft Exchange objects, SharePoint items, OneDrive items, and Microsoft Teams objects using the following cmdlets:

   - [`Start-VBOExchangeItemRestoreSession`](https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/vbo365/explorers_powershell/start-vboexchangeitemrestoresession.html?ver=8)
   - [`Start-VBOSharePointItemRestoreSession`](https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/vbo365/explorers_powershell/start-vbosharepointitemrestoresession.html?ver=8)
   - [`Start-VEODRestoreSession`](https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/vbo365/explorers_powershell/start-veodrestoresession.html?ver=8)
   - [`Start-VBOTeamsItemRestoreSession`](https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/vbo365/explorers_powershell/start-vboteamsitemrestoresession.html?ver=8)

- Create and start a retrieval job to retrieve data from backup copies created by Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 in an object storage repository. For more information, see [`Start-VBODataRetrieval`](start-vbodataretrieval.md).

## Output Object
The cmdlet returns an array of [`VBORestorePoint`](vborestorepoint.md) objects created by Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365.

## Examples

::: example
### Example 1: Getting All Restore Points

This command returns restore points created by all backup jobs in Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365.

```
Get-VBORestorePoint
```

:::

::: example
### Example 2: Getting Restore Points for Specific Backup Job

This example shows how to get restore points created by Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 for a specific backup job.

```
$job = Get-VBOJob -Name "Backup: Sales Mailbox"
Get-VBORestorePoint -Job $job
```

Perform the following steps:

1. Run the [`Get-VBOJob`](get-vbojob.md) cmdlet with the `Name` parameter to get the backup job for which you want to get restore points. Save the result to the `$job` variable.
2. Run the `Get-VBORestorePoint` cmdlet. Set the `$job` variable as the `Job` parameter value.

::: example
### Example 3: Getting Restore Points for Specific Organization

This example shows how to get restore points created by Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 for a specific organization.

```
$org = Get-VBOOrganization -Name "ABC"
Get-VBORestorePoint -Organization $org
```

Perform the following steps:

1. Run the [`Get-VBOOrganization`](get-vboorganization.md) cmdlet with the `Name` parameter to get the organization with the name *ABC*. Save the result to the `$org` variable.
2. Run the `Get-VBORestorePoint` cmdlet. Set the `$org` variable as the `Organization` parameter value.

::: example
### Example 4: Starting Exchange Items Restore Session

This example shows how to start a restore session to explore backed-up Microsoft Exchange objects for the first restore point of a specific backup job.

```
$job = Get-VBOJob -Name "Backup: Sales Mailbox"
$restorepoint = (Get-VBORestorePoint -Job $job | Sort -Property BackupTime)
Start-VBOExchangeItemRestoreSession -RestorePoint $restorepoint[0]
```

Perform the following steps:

1. Run the [`Get-VBOJob`](get-vbojob.md) cmdlet with the `Name` parameter to get the backup job for which you want to start a restore session. Save the result to the `$job` variable.
2. Run the `Get-VBORestorePoint` cmdlet to get an array of restore points automatically sorted descending by `BackupTime`. Set the `$job` variable as the `Job` parameter value. Save the result to the `$restorepoint` variable.
3. Run the [`Start-VBOExchangeItemRestoreSession`](https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/vbo365/explorers_powershell/start-vboexchangeitemrestoresession.html?ver=8) cmdlet. Set the `$restorepoint` variable as the `RestorePoint` parameter value.

::: example
### Example 5: Getting Restore Points for Azure Blob Storage Archive

This example shows how to get restore points created by Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 for Azure Blob Storage Archive.

```
$archiverepo = Get-VBORepository -Name "Azure Blob Storage Archive" -LongTerm
Get-VBORestorePoint -Repository $archiverepo -IsLongTermCopy
```

Perform the following steps:

1. Run the [`Get-VBORepository`](get-vborepository.md) cmdlet with the `Name` parameter. Provide the `LongTerm` parameter. Save the result to the `$archiverepo` variable.
2. Run the `Get-VBORestorePoint` cmdlet. Set the `$archiverepo` variable as the `Repository` parameter value. Provide the `IsLongTermCopy` parameter.
