Restore items by modified date

Post by SteelContainer »

Hi there,

I'm looking at options to restore a subset of items in a SharePoint site, in particular items with a modified date in the last 3 months.
When I use the advanced find option in the Veeam SharePoint explorer it finds all of the files I want to restore correctly, and if I right click an item I can choose the restore document option fine. However if I CTRL+A select all items and right click the option to restore are greyed out.

Is there another way to perform this type of restore (items modified in the last 3 months)? Restoring items 1 or 2 at a time would be time consuming.

Thanks!

Hi,

Do the items that you are selecting belong to the same or multiple different sites?

Hi Polina,

Just one site. I click on the site in the navigation then do the advanced search.
I also tried using CTRL+Click to select items one by one in the results and it seems like selecting anywhere between 3-10 items will cause the restore options to grey out. Maybe a item size limitation? It doesn't seem to be a set number of items that causes it to grey out.

Thanks.

Most likely, files that you're multiselecting belong to different folders within your site, and Veeam Explorer cannot handle such restores.
