Export-VEXItem usage

Post by rkgreg »

I am using the community version of Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 - 8.4.0.1457 P20260413.

Using PowerShell for a proof of concept to export user mailboxes to pst using PowerShell before purchasing licenses.

I followed the guide https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/vbr/e ... tml?ver=13 using Example 1. Export-VEXItem creates a pst and also displays a message "Export-VEXItem: Input string was not in a correct format. Failure to parse near offset 23. Expected an ASCII digit."

I am not sure what the message is referring to and what to change, also curious if anyone else receives the same message. I opened a support case 08083652 it was closed due to low support staff.

Exact same error, we are on version 8.4.0.1457 P20260413, licensed.
Need to export a lot so want to do it in a batch, not separately via the GUI.
Created Case #08098215

Got answer from Support: the issue lines up with the known 8.4 Export-VEXItem regression. For now work-around is doing exports via the GUI which works fine (but is al lot of clicks for many exports).
Otherwise just wait on a fix, no problem.
