Office 365 Audit Logs for compliance

[collinp]

Some compliance workloads require the storage of audit logs for 3 years or more. Is it possible to backup Office 365 Audit Logs?

There are several options for the VBO logs.

- You can set the audit log time to 3 years: https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/vbo36 ... tml?ver=40 and back up the server with VAW/VBR
- You can also just back up the VBO server with the veeam agent for windows and store it for multiple years.
- You can use PowerShell to take a copy of the logs.
- You can copy the standard VBO365 logs folder.

If you are talking about logs specific to O365, these aren’t supported by VBO.

I'm talking about Office 365 Audit logs. Sounds like they aren't supported by VBO. Is this planned for the future?

No plans for a short term release. We will take your request as noted. Thanks!
