Selecting Gsuite Shared drive files

Selecting Gsuite Shared drive files

To select Shared drive files

1. Click G Suite.
2. If multiple G Suite organizations were added to the backup service, select the organization whose users' data you want to back up. Otherwise, skip this step.
3. Do one of the following:
  1. To back up the files of all Shared drive (including Shared drive that will be created in the future), expand the Shared drives node, select All Shared drives, and then click Group backup.
  2. To back up the files of individual Shared drives, expand the Shared drives node, select All Shared drives, select the Shared drives to back up, and then click Backup.
4. On the backup plan panel:
  1. In Items to back up, do one of the following:
    1.  Keep the default setting [All] (all files).
    2. Specify the files and folders to back up by adding their names or paths.
      You can use wildcard characters (*, **, and ?). For more details about specifying paths and using wildcards, refer to "File filters" (p. 73).
    3. Specify the files and folders to back up by browsing.
      The Browse link is available only when creating a backup plan for a single Shared drive.
  2. [Optional] In Items to back up, click Show exclusions to specify the files and folders to skip during the backup.
    File exclusions override the file selection; i.e. if you specify the same file in both fields, this file will be skipped during a backup.
  3. If you want to enable notarization of all files selected for backup, enable the Notarization switch. For more information about notarization, refer to "Notarization" (p. 164).
