Re: Teams Export API - Excessive Costs
As a Microsoft Partner I let our Customers to see the Cost + Billing blade, is your right
You can migrate the subscription with no downtime to my Company , probably you will even save money, we just invoice what we see in the Cost + Billing blade with no additional fee

Re: Teams Export API - Excessive Costs
Hi All,
As informed earlier, we ask all our clients to configure Azure Budget alerts on the resource group.
One of our clients, where in we setup teams backup in Jan, had a similar alert when the first full backup for teams ran. Which was expected as first full backup will use the Teams export API to download all teams channel posts.
But then no alerts in Feb. And now in March first week, the alert is raised for usage of $85 (which when converted to USD and then divided by 0.00075 is a very high value). We checked the teams admin report and the teams channel posts usage for the last one month is 817. Do not see why the daily incremental backup would use so many API calls. Unless any of the latest 8.1 patches causes a full rescan or re-sync.
Have this case opened - 07630174 and getting some not so useful replies from support. Have requested to get this escalated.
As requested many times above, we need a way to know how many times VBM365 calls the API - this is important to have a control on this.

Re: Teams Export API - Excessive Costs
Hi Sumeet,
There were no changes in 8.1 patches, but a full sync of messages from private and shared channels should be expected after upgrading to 8.1:
Thanks!

Atm, I can't provide you with any ETA for the ability to control the paid requests count, but I can assure you that it is on our roadmap.To ensure backup consistency, a full backup of messages from private and shared Teams channels will be performed after you upgrade Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 from v7.0 or v7a to v8.1. This may result in a one-time increase in costs for using the Teams Exports APIs. The full backup is necessary because your backup repositories may already contain some of the messages, but the date when Microsoft APIs began returning messages from private and shared channels is unknown and may vary across different channels, teams, and organizations.
Thanks!

Re: Teams Export API - Excessive Costs
Hi Polina,
Good to know that this is on your roadmap.
This is not a upgrade from v7x to v8.1. This is freshly v8.0 setup, with an upgrade from v8.0 to v8.1.
Based on your above message, upgrade from v8.0 to v8.1 should not require a full backup of messages.
So must be something else. We have had to disable the backup job, until more details are available.
The latest update is that the case is now escalated. Waiting for more details.

Thanks Polina.
The case is slow - I have provided lot of information, but minimal response from support - not sure if all the info I have provided is being absorbed or considered.
Will be helpful if this can be escalated.
