Recover Classroom Data via Calendar Mode

To restore/export backup Classroom data from a specific recovery point, follow the steps below:

Click Restore on the left navigation.

*Note: On the Restore page, click the Google Classroom tab if your organization also has other modules.
Select the Calendar mode tab.
By default, only the successful backup jobs are displayed on the calendar. If you also want to check backup jobs with exceptions, select the Include jobs with partial backup data option.
Each recovery point on the calendar represents the start time of a backup job. By default, the calendar displays the current month’s page. You can click components on the calendar to find the month page which lists your desired recovery points.
Click a recovery point, and you are directed to the table listing classes that are in the backup scope.

*Note: By default, the scope contains historical backup data. If you want to recover contents which were just backed up by the selected backup job, select the Include data from this backup only option.
The table below shows the relationship between different levels of backup objects.

Container	Class	Class	Class	Class	Class
Object type	Announcement	Classwork	People	Grade	Drive
Content	announcements	classwork of the following types: assignment, short answer, multiple choice, and material	students and teachers	students	Ownersfolders and files

Note the following: 

- When you hover the mouse over an item with sub-level items, you can click that item and continue to select sub-level items as you needed.

- When you select a parent-level item, all sub-level items will also be selected. If you only want to recover some of the sub-level items, you can return to the parent-level item and deselect it.
