Backup M365 Teams data onto the Vaultastic Open or Deep Store

Overview

  • M365 Teams is used by organizations for most internal communications. Teams data carries important conversations and documents which need to be archived.
  • Using the LegacyFlo Teams-S3-ZIP or Teams-S3-PST request types, you can now archive Teams conversations into emails which are saved on the Vaultastic Open or the Vaultastic Deep Store.

Step 1: Getting access to the Teams data

This is a one-time process, in which you generate the Graph API access key and register with LegacyFlo.

Follow the steps given here.

Step 2: Register the S3 bucket on which Open/Deep Store is hosted with LegacyFlo

The S3 bucket on which the Vaultastic Open/Deep Store is hosted has to be registered with LegacyFlo (this is a one time activity). For the steps on registration, refer to this article

Note: For the Open Store, the first step of bucket creation, policies and permissions mentioned in the article is to be skipped.

Step 3: Submitting a LegacyFlo request

You can submit requests to archive Teams communication data using the LegacyFlo interface.

The request type to be used is Teams-S3-ZIP or Teams-S3-PST.


The source parameters for the request are as follows:
