Selecting Shared drive files

Select the files as described below, and then specify other settings of the protection plan as appropriate.

To select Shared drive files

Click Google Workspace.
If multiple Google Workspace organizations were added to the Cyber Protection service, select the organization whose users' data you want to back up. Otherwise, skip this step.
Do one of the following:
- 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.
- 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.
In the backup plan, configure the following:
- In Items to back up, do one of the following:
  - Keep the default setting [All] (all files).
  - 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".
  - Specify the files and folders to back up by browsing.
    
    The Browse link is available only when creating a protection plan for a single Shared drive.
- [Optional] To specify the files and folders that will be skipped during the backup, in Items to back up, click Show exclusions.
  
  File exclusions override the file selection. If you specify the same file in both fields, this file will be skipped during a backup.
- In How long to keep, configure the retention rules for the backups.
- In Encryption, click Specify password.
