If you selected the Enable Granular Restore option for the corresponding backup job, you can expand the applicable nodes to select individual folders and emails for recovery in Outlook or individual files and folders for recovery in OneDrive.
NOTE: Plug‑in for Microsoft Office 365 does not support the restore of on-premises synced users and groups while the sync is enabled.

When you delete on-premises synced Windows Server Active Directory (AD) users from Azure AD after disabling the AD sync, the users restore as an Azure AD users. The administrator then receives an email of duplicate attributes for users that changed to Azure AD users on every sync. If the administrator wants to sync them again as Windows Server AD users, then you must delete the users from Azure AD and sync again.

On the Create Selection Set page, click , and configure the following parameters on the Outlook tab of the Office 365 Restore Options dialog box:

Restore mailbox to particular folder: If you want to specify a specific location to restore the selected mailbox folder to, select this option and enter the name of the folder.
Restore Mailbox Settings: To include the settings and rules associated with the selected mailboxes, select this option.
Exclude attachments: If attachments and inline images were included in the backup, select this option if you want to exclude the attachments and images from the restore.

On the Create Selection Set page, click , and configure the following parameters on the Outlook tab of the Office 365 Restore Options dialog box:

Set password for user(s): The plug-in assigns the default password nvbu123*#$ from the config file to the user. As the administrator, you can use this option to assign the user a different password during restore to match domain policies. This password is set for all users that are restored after being deleted from the Azure AD.
Skip assigned license(s): By default, all licenses that were backup for the Azure AD user will be assigned by restore operation. If you do not want to assign those licenses, select this option.
Delete existing application(s): By default, the previous application associated with a service principal is not deleted from Azure AD on restoring a service principal. If you want to delete the existing application from Azure AD upon restoring the service principal, select this option.

Finalizing and submitting the restore job

These pages and options are common to all NetVault Backup Plug-ins. For more information, see the Quest NetVault Backup Administrator’s Guide.
