Getting started with backing up Teams includes completing the Microsoft 365 service catalog—which helps you perform some of the required setup tasks—adding the teams that you want to back up, and performing a test backup and restore.
Important
If possible, perform the getting started process in a test environment. After you perform a test backup and restore, you can move the system into production.
Procedure
-
Verify that your environment meets the system requirements for Teams.
What to Do Next
-
For security reasons, consider changing the Microsoft 365 global administrator account to a Teams administrator account.
-
If you want to automatically discover and back up all teams, add All Teams to the Teams app.
-
Monitor backup activity to maintain a functional environment.
