Salesforce Objects not supported for restore

A few objects cannot be restored due to the following reasons:

  • History objects are not restorable. They should only be selected for backup if there is a strong need to retain historical information on record or field-level changes for auditing purposes.

  • Share objects of the type Manual only can be restored. Other types of Share records cannot be restored due to Salesforce API limitations.

  • You cannot restore a few Salesforce objects, as Salesforce APIs do not restore the objects for which Salesforce supports query() operations such as insert(), update(), and upsert(). This limitation restricts insert and update operations on some entities.

  • The TrackedChanges type in the FeedItem standard object cannot be restored.

  • The restore of ContentWorkspace is not supported for the Partner Enterprise type organization.

  • The Salesforce objects that are not backed up by Cohesity Alta SaaS Protection cannot be restored.

    See Salesforce Objects not supported for backup.
