Feature Request: SharePoint Restore - Allow selection of restore location via folder/sub folder options
Feature Request: SharePoint Restore - Allow selection of restore location via folder/sub folder options, instead of free text. Free text, this leaves room for user error.

Am I right in understanding that you want to "browse" the SharePoint hierarchy and allow to select an "empty" site or an existing site-collection in order to restore? Instead of typing the URL manually?

Re: Feature Request: SharePoint Restore - Allow selection of restore location via folder/sub folder options
Morning Mike,
I hope you're well, yes kind of correct, I just mean to allow an end user to select the location you wish to restore to via expanding Sites/Lists/Folders (Any SharePoint structure really), instead of typing in free text. Similar to how Veeam allows you to select what data you want to restore already available in a backup.
The way it currently works, allows too much user error and the way SharePoint sites are displayed in a URL bar in the web browser, it doesn't quite match the format I was shown how to restore using the "typing" method.
I hope this makes sense? Any more questions, let me know.
Thanks, Nick.
