Enabling Channel Chat Backups for an Existing Azure App

You can configure backups for channel (team) chats. Microsoft requires an additional charge for every backup of channel chats because the backup operation requires the use of paid Microsoft export APIs. Channel chat backups are disabled by default.

Before You Begin

Verify that on the Configuration tab under Teams connections settings, in the Export API access column, at least one Azure app displays Yes. For instructions about enabling Export APIs for an Azure app, see Enabling Paid Export APIs for an Existing Azure App.

Procedure

  1. From the navigation pane, go to Protect > Office 365.

    The Office 365 Overview page appears.

  2. On the Apps tab, click the app.

    The Overview page of the app appears.

  3. On the Configuration tab, in the Chat backup settings section, beside Channel chat, click Edit edit pencil button gray.

    By default, either Free Protected APIs or Service Account (only for users who upgraded from a previous version) are selected. However, these options do not allow backup of channel (team) chats.
