Can I restore a distribution group?

Post by pufferdude »

I have Veeam Backup for Office 365 backing up all users in my tenant as well as Teams sites (but I'm not on the latest version that explicitly handles teams). Are things like distribution groups in O365 ALSO automatically backed-up when you back up users, or do I have to configure something else for that to happen?

Right now when I open the admin panel and it loads the Veeam Explorer for Exchange, I see nothing but a giant list of my users in a tree on the left (and says "enumerating..." forever)... but nothing about distro lists or other kinds of objects. Am I just missing them in the backup?

Distribution groups are Azure AD Groups.
They cannot be restored. Veeam has no Restore solution for Azure AD Items

Ah, ok. That makes sense.
