You can add AD (Active Directory) groups as backup content for Teams apps. When you add an AD group, any time a new user is added to the AD group, the user is discovered automatically and added to backup content.
Before You Begin
If you want to back up the personal chats, meeting chats, and multiple-user chats for each unique user, you must enable paid export APIs from Microsoft. For instructions, see Configuring Personal Chat and Channel Chat Backups.
