Product(s): SaaS Backup

Problem:

Microsoft Teams Channel messages are not backed up

Error Message:

N/A.

Cause:

New API on Microsoft side that enables this has not been enabled yet for all customers.

Solution: 

Veritas SaaS Backup supports the backup of Teams Channels conversations, but please note that this may not apply to all customers.

The reason is because Veritas SaaS Backup uses a new version of Microsoft Graph to fetch Channels data. As these APIs are extremely new, not all customers have this enabled by Microsoft and so this can cause issues with the backup.  

We believe that Microsoft will soon be enabling these APIs for all tenants, and customers.
