What Is Not Backed Up

  • Data from SharePoint folders other than the channel folder. You can back up documents only from the channel folder.

  • Wikis: Microsoft no longer supports wikis, so they cannot be backed up.

  • Preservation Hold Library

  • OneNote tab data will not be backed up. It will be protected using the SharePoint agent.

  • Data under the default Notes tab will not be backed up. It will be protected using the SharePoint agent.

What Cannot Be Restored

  • Posts or channels cannot be restored to a file location. You can restore only Teams uploaded files to a file location.

  • Wikis: Microsoft no longer supports wikis, so they cannot be restored.

  • Preservation Hold Library

  • OneNote tab data will not be restored. It will be protected using the SharePoint agent.

  • Data under the default Notes tab will not be restored. It will be protected using the SharePoint agent.

Considerations

  • For items to be backed up, each team must have at least one user that is assigned the owner role.

  • After restoring a custom tab, you must manually link the content of the tab to view it.

  • To resolve a 400 Bad Request error response when creating a channel, see Commvault KB article 84762.
