There are two methods you can use to select SharePoint Site Collections for backup with x360Cloud.

Each is described in the instructions below:

NOTES:

  • When you back up a SharePoint Site Collection, you are backing up all Document Libraries that exist in that Site Collection. Learn more about using documents and libraries in Microsoft SharePoint.
  • Optionally, you can configure x360Cloud to automatically back up new SharePoint Site Collections.
