# Creating Custom Categories for OneDrive Backup Content

You can create custom categories for OneDrive backup content so that you can group specific types of content together. This is helpful if you need to have a different backup frequency or different settings for specific types of backup content.

   The Microsoft 365 apps page appears.

2. On the Apps tab, click the app.

   The Overview page of the app appears.

3. On the Content tab, at the upper-right area of the page, click Add.

   The Configure Content wizard appears.

4. Select Add content to backup, and then click Next.

5. Expand Advanced, select Custom categories, and then click Next.

7. Click the Add Rule button.

   The Add rule dialog box appears.

8. From the Source list, select the type of data that you want to define the category, and then configure the settings for the data:

     - Operator: Select Equals. This is the only option available because you will choose from a list of preconfigured values.

     - Value: To include only backup content with an active license, select Active. To include backup content with an active or inactive license, select Active or Revoked.

   - User Display Name: To create a category of backup data based on user name, select this option.

     - Operator: To define the text that each user name has in common, select one of the available options, such as Starts With or Contains. You can also use a regular expression to define a pattern of text.

     - Value: Enter a string of text that each user name has in common.

   - User Geo Location: To create a category of backup data based on the OneDrive users' geographical location, select this option.
