## Examples

### Modifying Processing Options of User Backup Item

This example shows how to add all processing options except for the mailbox for a backup item with a user named *userAlpha*.

```
$org = Get-VBOOrganization -Name "ABC"
$user = Get-VBOOrganizationUser -Organization $org -DisplayName "userAlpha"
$backupitem = New-VBOBackupItem -User $user -Mailbox -ArchiveMailbox -OneDrive -Sites
Set-VBOBackupItem -BackupItem $backupitem -Mailbox:$false -ArchiveMailbox -OneDrive -Sites
```

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 `$org` variable.
2. Run the [`Get-VBOOrganizationUser`](get-vboorganizationuser.md) cmdlet with the `$org` variable and the `userAlpha` value for the `DisplayName` parameter to get a user with the display name *userAlpha*. Save the result to the `$user` variable.
3. Run the [`New-VBOBackupItem`](new-vbobackupitem.md) cmdlet with the `$user` variable as the `User` parameter value and `Mailbox`, `ArchiveMailbox`, `OneDrive` and `Sites` parameters. Save the result to the `$backupitem` variable.
4. Run the `Set-VBOBackupItem` cmdlet with the `$backupitem` variable as the `BackupItem` parameter value, `ArchiveMailbox`, `OneDrive` and `Sites` parameters, and the `false` value for the `Mailbox` parameter to create a backup item with all *userAlpha* processing options except for the mailbox.
