Feature Request: SharePoint Restore - Allow restore to another folder location. Not restoring to another site/list but a different document folder within the same site/list.

Hi Nick,

Thank you for bringing this to our attention; absolutely valid request indeed.

Morning Polina,

I hope you're well, the rationale and possible scenario's where this feature would be useful is:

DR (Disaster Recover)/Operational Resilience Testing, where you don't want to restore into the same location, as it could overwrite data which isn't required as its a test.
If the user requesting the data restore needed to check the file/s before if the original file still exists in the same location etc

Any update on this feature request, let me know.

Thanks and take care, Nick.
