Download this articleFor the support status of Teams data types, note the following and refer to the tables in the following sections
With the update of Teams API, we can now protect Teams using app profile authentication. By leveraging App Context when connecting your Microsoft 365 environment to AvePoint Online Services, AvePoint no longer stores any of your administrative credentials (only consent) and will not require service users to be the owners and members of your Teams to manage and protect them. Besides, it also allows us to avoid many per-user throttling limits common with service accounts.
The Teams service is now available for customers using Microsoft 365 operated by 21Vianet in China. Note that hosted content is unsupported and will be skipped in the backup.
The restore of the Team’s owner and members may take a couple of hours to synchronize to the destination Teams interface. In addition, the guest users in Teams cannot be restored due to API limitations.
Private Channels in Teams can now be protected with limitations. For details, refer to Components in Private/Shared Channels.
For the support status of data types in the team’s Team site, refer to SharePoint Sites Data Types.
Most tab types can be created, but many cannot be configured currently through the API. For the support of tabs, the current release is designed to recover the tabs that have been deleted and do not yet support updating existing tabs to previous settings and configurations apart from the following tab types: Planner, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and PDF.
If you have performed a restore for any tabs of the above types before and at that time the configurations were not being restored to the destination, you can now remove that tab from the Team and run the restore job again. The configurations can be restored properly.
Refer to the following tables
Refer to the following table for the supported and unsupported status of the components in Channel, and the supported and unsupported status for the data that are added or attached to the Channel through the corresponding methods.
Note the following for Conversations:
Conversations can be restored as posts or to HTML files.
If the conversations are restored to HTML files, these restored files are stored in the Files tab. To open or download the attached files in the restored conversation, you can right-click the file link and select Open in new tab or Open in new window. Note that due to the API limitations, the conversation time in the restored HTML file is UTC time.
The restore channel conversations as posts, you must have a Microsoft Delegated app configured in your tenant. Note that the authentication user of the delegated app must have a Teams license and an Exchange Online license. A restore job to restore conversations as posts will add the authentication user to Teams members or private channel members and then automatically remove them after the restore job completes. The conversation time restored in posts will follow UTC time.
Tab’s conversations will be restored with Channel conversations to HTML files or posts.
The conversations that are generated by creating meetings will be restored with no details.
If Teams has a new app installed, a conversation for the new app will be started. After the conversation is restored to the HTML file, there may be extra strings and lines displayed in the HTML file.

Refer to the following table for the supported and unsupported status of the components in private or shared channels, and the supported and unsupported status for the data that is added or attached to the private/shared channels through the corresponding methods.
Note the following for protecting the private/shared channels:
If you are using service account authentication for the backup of Teams’ private/shared channel, the service account must be the owner of the channel.
Private/shared channels can only be restored through the Calendar mode restore wizard, and private/shared channels do not support out-of-place restore.
If you restore a shared channel to its original location in the host team, the individual sharing with people in your organization can be kept while the individual sharing with people outside your organization and team sharing cannot be restored.

Refer to the table below for the supported Planner data and note the following issues for Planner backup and restore:
Authentication Method
Planner data now supports app profile authentication.
General
Due to limitations in the Microsoft API, Planner Premium cannot be protected.
Microsoft Graph API now only allows you to create up to 200 plans in a Team or Group. Therefore, if the number of plans in the destination Microsoft 365 group or team reaches 200, the restore of the remaining plans that need to be created in the destination will fail.
When restoring plans, the plan ID and plan name will be used to identify the plan. If the destination has a plan using the same ID, the backup data of the plan will be updated and merged into the destination plan. If there is no identical plan using the same ID, refer to the following:
If there is only one destination plan using the same name as the backup, the backup data of the plan will be updated and merged into the destination plan.
If there is no plan using the same name or more than one plan using the same name in the destination, the restore job will create new plans for restoring the plans in the backup.
If you only selected plans to restore to a target channel, the plan cannot be automatically added to the Channel tabs. You must manually add the Planner app to the tab and select the restored plan to add.
By default, the restore job will restore the Planner task’s attachment link to the target. If you want to restore the latest files in the attachment of the Planner tasks, contact the AvePoint Support team for assistance.
