    Restore Azure DevOps Organizations

    Azure DevOps service protects Azure DevOps organizations. You can restore the backup data to its original location.

    Follow the instructions below to perform the restore and you can also refer to Azure DevOps section for the supported and unsupported status when restoring the backup data to its original location.

    To restore the organizations, follow the steps below:

    1. Go to the Restore page and click the Azure DevOps tile.

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

    3. 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.

    4. Click the data recovery point that you want to use in the calendar. The organizations backed up in the selected backup job are displayed in the table.

    5. Click the organizations to drill down to the items that you want to restore, select the items, and then click the Restore button.

    6. In the Restore options step, you can select Merge, Overwrite, or Skip as the conflict resolution.

      NOTE
      • 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. For example, the protection settings of Safe links policy that are configured via checkbox field type will be overwritten by the backup data after being restored. 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.
      • The deleted organizations cannot be restored.

    7. You can enter a description for this restore job for further reference. Click Next.

    8. Review the restore settings in the Overview step. You can click Back to go back to the previous steps in the restore wizard to modify the settings.

    9. Click Restore to run the restore job.
