modern certificate-based authentication also for Sharepoint/OneDrive and Teams Objects?

[iivel]

Currently, it's only possible to use the certificate-based authentication for Restoreing Exchange Objects.
However, Restoring Sharepoint/Onedrive and Teams Objects still require user Login with Sharepoint.Administrator or Team.Adminstrator Roles assigned.

Is integration of certificate-based authentication for all restore jobs planned for any future release?
This would reduce complexity for Helpdesk staff to restore MS365 objects.

According to post517683.html?hilit=modern%20certific ... n.#p517683 impersonation roles are deprecated by MS in 2025 anyway.

Kind Regards,

Hi Michael,

Thank you for your request. Unfortunately, there is no information we can share today when it may be available.

This would reduce complexity for Helpdesk staff to restore MS365 objects.

Have you considered using our Restore Portal? You can assign a Restore Operator role to your helpdesk team, allowing them to use the Restore Portal to restore objects without needing the SharePoint Administrator or Team Administrator role assignments.

Currently, it's also possible to perform these actions using REST APIs or PowerShell. If you have developed your own web portal, you can utilize the REST API to restore such items with certificate-based authentication.

Best,
Fabian
