Searching for Objects in Backup
You can use Veeam Data Cloud for Microsoft 365 to search for objects in your Flex backups. The product offers 3 search mechanisms:
- Search. This is the initial rollout of the new and faster Veeam Data Cloud search engine, currently only available for Microsoft Exchange Online backups. You can search across all restore points of an item and also search for deleted items. For more information on the new search engine and the rollout details, see this Veeam KB article.
- Direct Search. This is basic search, available for Microsoft Exchange Online, OneDrive documents, SharePoint Online folders and Teams posts backups. You can select a restore point, specify a search word and get results fast.
- Advanced Search. This is advanced search, available for Microsoft Exchange Online, OneDrive, SharePoint Online and Teams backups. You can select a restore point and specify multiple search criteria. It may take a long time to display results.

If you are looking for a specific item to restore, to save time, you can also directly browse your backups for the specific item and time range and then restore it. For example, to restore a specific SharePoint site, click Flex Restore on the left menu, go to the SharePoint tab and select the specific SharePoint site from the tree list or locate it using filtering. Then select the restore options and restore the item. For more information, see Microsoft 365 Restore. |
