Overview

Now you can browse and restore or export SharePoint data for a specified point in time.

Our x360Cloud SharePoint folder browser lets you explore a folder tree of a particular SharePoint site and all of its backed up files.  You can also

• see the SharePoint folder contents
• perform searches within the SharePoint folder
• restore or export selected folders or individual files

Browse your backed up SharePoint data using the x360Cloud browser tools

1.1 Log into your reseller x360Cloud Dashboard. 

1.2 Select the Organizations menu.

1.4. When the organization's Dashboard page displays, you will have access to the organization details and reports.

Continue reading below to find out how you can explore the data captured by x360Cloud at a specified time, how you can perform file searches and recover the data.

Explore data as it was at a specified point in time

To apply a point-in-time setting, you must specify the date in the DATE field (and optionally, the time in the TIME field), and then click the Update button. 

x360Cloud will show the latest file folder structure as it was captured at or before the specified point in time.

For example:

• if a folder (or file) was renamed after the specified point in time, it will be shown in the browser with the old name
• if a folder (or file) was moved after the specified point in time, it will be shown in the browser with the old path
• if a folder (or file) was added after the specified point in time, it will not be shown in the browser

NOTE: if a folder (or file) was deleted before the specified point in time, it will still be shown in the browser at its original path, so that it can be easily found and recovered in the event of a disaster.

Search for files in a specified folder

Need to search for a file within a particular folder?

Select the folder in the Container Folders section, enter your terms into the search box and press the Search button. The search field supports wildcards and can perform a search by “a phrase wrapped in quotation marks”. 

Searches are performed using the following file attributes: 

• File name: The extension must be part of a keyword
• File metadata: The document author
• File content. The following file formats are supported: 

How to select objects for restore or export

You can select individual folders, files or a combination of them in any way that is convenient for you.

When you select a folder using the checkboxes in the folder tree, all its descendants - subfolders and files - are also selected. You can also de-select/select its specific subfolders or files if you want to refine your selection. In this case the originally selected parent folder will be shown as partially selected: 

You can also select individual files by clicking each desired individual checkbox in the Folder Contents section:

How to perform bulk file selection

For bulk file selection, you have two methods available:

METHOD #1: Click the Select All button (in the upper right corner) to select all files in this folder or all search results (this will include all files from every page of the list).

You can combine multiple options to select different combinations of files and folders to restore or export.
