#Configure End-User Restore Settings

Through the Settings > End-user restore > End-user restore settings for ReCenter and AVA users page, you can choose whether to enable the end-user restore functionality for ReCenter or AVA users. This includes allowing users to recover, export, or preview the backup data of the supported services, as well as specifying who have permission to restore, export, or preview the Team/Group/Power BI backup data via ReCenter/AVA.

You can also choose whether to allow ReCenter or AVA users to recover sharing links of the backup data. In addition, if you have a BYOS subscription using your Azure storage, you can also configure whether to allow end users of ReCenter or AVA in your tenant to restore the backup data in the archive tier.

The End-user restore setting is only available to your application administrators or the service provider.

• If you do not want to allow the end-user restore, you can turn off the Allow ReCenter or AVA users to recover backup data switch. You can also separately disable the end-user restore, export, or preview for the following services: Exchange Online, OneDrive, SharePoint Online, Microsoft 365 Groups, Teams, Teams Chat, Power BI, and Power Automate. Note that Power BI only supports the end-user restore, and Teams Chat and Power Automate only supports the end-user export. The preview function is only supported for Exchange Online, OneDrive, SharePoint Online, Microsoft 365 Groups, and Teams.

• With the end-user restore enabled, you can select the user roles for who can perform the restore, export, or preview for Teams and Groups, and who can restore Power BI reports from ReCenter/AVA.

If you have a BYOS subscription using your Azure storage, the Allow all ReCenter and AVA users to restore archived data stored on the Archive tier switch is available on this page. To allow all ReCenter and AVA users to restore backup data in the archive tier, turn this switch on. Note that Cloud Backup for Microsoft 365 does not support exporting the backup data in the archive tier.

The restore job will at first rehydrate the backup data sets in the archive tier for restore. Therefore, the restore job may take longer, and you may notice an additional charge. For additional details, refer to this .

*Note: If your subscription was updated to use AvePoint default storage from using your own storage (BYOS subscription), this setting will be unavailable, and your end users cannot restore the backup data stored at the archive tier from your own storage. In this case, you can help them perform the restore from Cloud Backup for Microsoft 365 interface instead.

By default, sharing links for SharePoint Online, OneDrive and Team/Group data won’t be restored when end users restore the backup data through ReCenter or AVA. To enable the restore of sharing links, you can turn on the Allow ReCenter or AVA users to recover sharing links switch.

*Note: For OneDrive backup cycles after November 2022, sharing links will always be restored and cannot be controlled by the Allow ReCenter or AVA users to recover sharing links setting.
