When planning backups for Dynamics, review the Dataverse tables you can include and exclude.
Included Data
- Standard & Custom Dataverse tables, with the following exclusions:
- Tables unsupported by the API. See table below.
- Virtual tables
- System tables
- All fields in a given table, with the exceptions of:
- Calculated/Roll up fields
- Formula fields
- Address composite fields in Account and Contact
- Logical fields. Their data source is located in another table.
- Chatter Feeds & Attachments
- Files (Attachments in annotations, Email attachments, and file/image fields)
- Activities
- Knowledge Base Articles
Configurable Exclusions
Own admins can configure the backup service to exclude non-business-critical tables to reduce overall backup time.
By default, the following tables are excluded but can be re-included as needed:
- audits
- plugintracelogs
- posts
- postcomments
- principalobjectaccesset (sharing info)
