Specifying the restore destination

1. To restore the data to the original backup source location (that is, the original G Suite account), select Original location. This option is selected by default.

2. To restore the data to an alternate location, select Alternate location, click the Browse >> button, and then do the following:

NOTE: When an alternate location is selected as the restore destination, DS-Client will verify if the user account that was backed up exists in that location. If the user account exists, DS‑Client will restore data to that destination. If the user account does not exist, DS‑Client will first attempt to create the user account and then restore data to that destination (this might incur additional costs). The user account will also have a randomly generated password that the Administrator must reset so that the user can log on.

In the Select Alternate Server dialog box, select the logon mode to access the restore destination by doing one of the following:

• To provide a client ID for native application, select Client ID for native application and then click Select.

NOTE: DS-Client will use this client ID to access only the G Suite account for which the client ID was generated.

When you provide the required credentials, the Client ID for native application logon mode allows you to restore data from the original G Suite user account (for example, john.smith@example.com):

• To the original G Suite user account on the original G Suite domain (for example, john.smith@example.com)

• To an alternate G Suite user account on the original G Suite domain (for example, mary.brown@example.com)

• To the original G Suite user account on an alternate G Suite domain (for example, john.smith@newdomain.com)

• To an alternate G Suite user account on an alternate G Suite domain (for example, mary.brown@newdomain.com)

• To provide the credentials of a service account, select Service account logon. In the www. box, type the name of the G Suite cloud service domain to which you want to restore the data, and then click Select.

NOTE: DS-Client will use the service account credentials to access one or multiple accounts on your G Suite domain.

When you provide the required credentials, the Service account logon mode allows you to restore data from the original G Suite user account (for example, john.smith@example.com):

• To the original G Suite user account on the original G Suite domain (for example, john.smith@example.com)

• To the original G Suite user account on an alternate G Suite domain (for example, john.smith@newdomain.com)

In the Enter API Access Credential dialog box, provide the credentials that are required to access the destination location by doing one of the following:

• If you have selected the Client ID for native application logon mode, click [...], browse and then select the JSON file that contains the OAuth 2.0 client ID and the client secret for the G Suite account to which you want to restore the data. The name of the file starts with client_secret. Alternatively, type the client ID.

a) Type the user name of the Google administrative account that you have used to create the service account that you will now use for API access. The domain name that you have typed in the previous dialog box is displayed.

b) In the Email address box, click [...], browse, and then select the JSON file that contains the client email address of the same service account. Alternatively, type the service account client email address.

c) In the Private key box, click [...], browse, and then select the PKCS12-format (or P12) private key generated for the same service account. This private key is a binary file with a .p12 extension.

3. To restore data to a disk location on the DS-Client computer, select the Restore to local disk check box, and then click [>>] to specify the location.

NOTE: UNC paths are not supported with this option.

4. If the restore is for email message backups, in the Custom Mail Label(s) box, specify the name of the folder to which the selected email messages will be restored at the destination location.
