Improvements

New Microsoft Graph API for Teams backup

SaaS Protection is excited to announce that our product now uses the new Microsoft Graph API for Teams backup. This update replaces the now deprecated Microsoft EWS API and offers improved performance, security, and scalability.

Here are some of the key changes you'll notice:

  • Improved performance: The new Graph API has been optimized for faster response times and lower latency, so you should experience quicker load times and smoother performance.
  • Enhanced security: The new API leverages Microsoft's latest security protocols, providing additional protection for your data and improving overall security.
  • Better scalability: The new API is designed to handle larger volumes of data and more complex queries, making it easier to work with larger datasets and complex workflows. If you are protecting your client’s Microsoft Team’s data with SaaS Protection you must reauthorize access for each protected Microsoft 365 domain to ensure there is no disruption to your client's backups.

    For information about reauthorizing Teams, see the article M365: Reauthorizing your Teams integration.

NOTE  Due to the architecture of the Microsoft Graph API, Teams Calendar will no longer be backed up.

Integrations

Integrating SaaS Protection with Graphus

Now you can integrate SaaS Protection with Graphus. Doing so enables you to work with your Graphus and SaaS Protection clients on one page. On the Graphus page within SaaS Protection, you can select a client and navigate to the client’s Status page, where can perform backup and recovery tasks for the client.

Also, you can click the threat number displayed for a client and be redirected to Graphus, where you can analyze the threats.

To enable integration, see the article Integrating SaaS Protection with Graphus.

Using the Datto REST API for SaaS Protection

SaaS Protection’s new REST API lets vendors create a dynamic integration experience in a more reliable and scalable way. It is also available for MSPs that have an experienced technical background.

Creating an integration with SaaS Protection’s REST API provides an easy way to retrieve readily available backup status and seat data. The SaaS Protection’s REST API uses the industry-standard Swagger UI for an interactive documentation experience that allows developers to trial responses from their own devices on their portal accounts.
