Hi all,
As Polina shared, we are working on the transition from EWS to Microsoft Graph API and plan to release the new Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 version in time to support Microsoft Graph API for <F- and Kiosk-licensed mailboxes>.
Today, we want to provide the list of additional required permissions for the backup application in Microsoft Entra ID so you can prepare before the update is released. This may be helpful for service providers that need to contact their customers to arrange these additional permissions.
Disclaimer: This list reflects the current development state and is expected to be final for the upcoming release. However, it may still change before release if additional Microsoft Graph API permissions are required. Please double-check the Release Notes or User Guide after GA.
Best regards,
Fabian
