Restore Enterprise Applications

    To restore enterprise applications, follow the steps below:

    1. Go to the Restore page and click the Microsoft Entra ID tile.

    2. Click the Recovery point tile.

    3. In the restore wizard, a calendar displays all the data recovery points. You can choose whether to display the finished with the exception jobs in the calendar by selecting the Include jobs with only partial backup data option.

    4. Hover over the data recovery point to view the job details, including the job status, job start time, scope name, scope ID, job ID, backup size, and the number of objects in a backup, and click the data recovery point that you want to use in the calendar.

    5. Select Enterprise application from the object type filter. You can manage the columns to adjust the view of enterprise applications.

    6. Select the enterprise applications that you want to restore and then click the Restore button.

    7. The View properties step displays the enterprise application information in a table. Click Next to continue the restore.

    8. In the Restore options step, select Merge, Overwrite, or Skip as the conflict resolution.

      *Note: The restore job can restore the single sign-on (SSO) configuration for the enterprise application directly if the enterprise application has not yet been permanently deleted. If the enterprise app has been permanently deleted, to restore the SSO configuration for this enterprise app, the Restore options step will display the Single sign-on configuration field for you to choose to allow AvePoint to generate an SSO certificate during the restore or you can import the certificate manually. Note that if you choose to allow AvePoint to generate the certificate, you must download the certificate later from Job Monitor and then send it to your service provider of this enterprise application to update your certificate.

      The SSO configurations for the enterprise application that has been permanently deleted.

      *Note: The Attributes and Claims, Identifier (Entity ID), currentSingleSignOnMode, ParentAppId, or IsCustomApp of the SSO configuration can only be restored if you have configured a service account with the Application Administrator role.

      The roles and administrators directly related to the selected enterprise applications can be restored as well.

    9. If a conflict occurs, Merge is to add the backup data to the destination for the properties that support adding new items. The existing properties with unique values will be replaced with the backup data. Overwrite is to remove the conflicting object from the destination and restore the backup data. Skip is to skip the restore of the backup data and keep the destination object intact.
