# Quick start
import CodeBlock from '@theme/CodeBlock';
import Tabs from '@theme/Tabs';
import TabItem from '@theme/TabItem';
import TOCInline from '@theme/TOCInline';
import {Version} from '@site/src/corsoEnv';
import DownloadBinaries from './setup/_download_binary.md';
This quick start guide runs through the steps you can follow to create your first Microsoft 365 backup and restore:
<TOCInline toc={toc} maxHeadingLevel={2}/>
## Download Corso
Download a Corso binary for your platform. If you would like to use a Docker container, the first `docker run` will
pull the image.
<DownloadBinaries />
## Connect to Microsoft 365
Obtaining credentials from Microsoft 365 to allow Corso to run is a one-time operation. Follow the instructions
[here](../setup/m365-access) to obtain the necessary credentials and then make them available to Corso.

```

## Create a Corso repository
To create a secure backup location for Corso, you will first need to [download Corso](../setup/download).
Use the container or native executable to initialize the Corso repository using an
[encryption passphrase](../setup/configuration#environment-variables) and a pre-created S3 bucket (Corso doesn't create
the bucket if it doesn't exist). The steps below use `corso-test` as the bucket name but, if you are using AWS, you
will need a different unique name for the bucket.
The following commands assume that in addition to the configuration values from the previous step, `AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID`
and `AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY` (and `AWS_SESSION_TOKEN` if you are using temporary credentials) are available to the
Corso binary or container.
<Tabs groupId="os">
<TabItem value="win" label="Powershell">
```powershell
# Initialize the Corso Repository
$Env:CORSO_PASSPHRASE = "CHANGE-ME-THIS-IS-INSECURE"

}</CodeBlock>

<!-- vale Vale.Spelling = YES -->
</TabItem>
</Tabs>
## Create your first backup
Corso can do much more, but you can start by creating a backup of your Exchange mailbox. If it has been a while since
you initialized the Corso repository, you might need to [connect to it again](../setup/repos#connect-to-a-repository).
<Tabs groupId="os">
<TabItem value="win" label="Powershell">
```powershell
# Backup your inbox
.\corso backup create exchange --mailbox <your exchange email address>
```
</TabItem>
<TabItem value="unix" label="Linux/macOS">
```bash
# Backup your inbox
./corso backup create exchange --mailbox <your exchange email address>
```
</TabItem>
<TabItem value="docker" label="Docker">
<CodeBlock language="bash">{
`# Backup your inbox
docker run --env-file $HOME/.corso/corso.env \\
--volume $HOME/.corso:/app/corso ghcr.io/alcionai/corso:${Version()} \\
backup create exchange --mailbox <your exchange email address>`
}</CodeBlock>
</TabItem>
</Tabs>
:::note
Your first backup may take some time if your mailbox is large.
:::
There will be progress indicators as the backup and, on completion, you should see output similar to:
```text
Started At ID Status Resource Owner
2022-10-20T18:28:53Z d8cd833a-fc63-4872-8981-de5c08e0661b Completed (0 errors) alice@contoso.com
```
## Restore an email
Now, lets explore how you can restore data from one of your backups. You can see all Exchange backups available with
the following command:
<Tabs groupId="os">
<TabItem value="win" label="Powershell">
```powershell
# List all Exchange backups
.\corso backup list exchange
```
</TabItem>
<TabItem value="unix" label="Linux/macOS">
```bash
# List all Exchange backups
./corso backup list exchange
```
</TabItem>
<TabItem value="docker" label="Docker">
<CodeBlock language="bash">{
`# List all Exchange backups
docker run --env-file $HOME/.corso/corso.env \\
--volume $HOME/.corso:/app/corso ghcr.io/alcionai/corso:${Version()} \\
backup list exchange`
}</CodeBlock>
</TabItem>
</Tabs>
```text
Started At ID Status Resource Owner
2022-10-20T18:28:53Z d8cd833a-fc63-4872-8981-de5c08e0661b Completed (0 errors) alice@contoso.com
2022-10-20T18:40:45Z 391ceeb3-b44d-4365-9a8e-8a8e1315b565 Completed (0 errors) alice@contoso.com
...
```
Next, select one of the available backups and list all backed up emails. See
[here](../cli/corso-backup-details-exchange) for more advanced filtering options.
<Tabs groupId="os">
<TabItem value="win" label="Powershell">
```powershell
# List emails in a selected backup
.\corso backup details exchange --backup <id of your selected backup> --email "*" | Select-Object -First 5
```
</TabItem>
<TabItem value="unix" label="Linux/macOS">
```bash
# List emails in a selected backup
./corso backup details exchange --backup <id of your selected backup> --email "*" | head
```
</TabItem>
<TabItem value="docker" label="Docker">
<CodeBlock language="bash">{
`# List emails in a selected backup
docker run --env-file $HOME/.corso/corso.env \\
--volume $HOME/.corso:/app/corso ghcr.io/alcionai/corso:${Version()} \\
backup details exchange --backup <id of your selected backup> --email "*" | head`
}</CodeBlock>
</TabItem>
</Tabs>
The output from the command above should display a list of any matching emails. Note the ID
of the email you would like to use for testing restore.
```text

...
```
To restore the selected email, use the following command.
<Tabs groupId="os">
<TabItem value="win" label="Powershell">
```powershell
# Restore a selected email
.\corso restore exchange --backup <id of your selected backup> --email <email message ID>
```
</TabItem>
<TabItem value="unix" label="Linux/macOS">
```bash
# Restore a selected email
./corso restore exchange --backup <id of your selected backup> --email <email message ID>
```
</TabItem>
<TabItem value="docker" label="Docker">
<CodeBlock language="bash">{
`# Restore a selected email
docker run --env-file $HOME/.corso/corso.env \\
--volume $HOME/.corso:/app/corso ghcr.io/alcionai/corso:${Version()} \\
restore exchange --backup <id of your selected backup> --email <email message ID>`
}</CodeBlock>
</TabItem>
</Tabs>
A confirmation of the recovered email will be shown and the email will appear in a new mailbox folder named `Corso_Restore_DD-MMM-YYYY_HH:MM:SS`.

```
## Advanced Restores
You can control where your data gets restored, and what happens if restored items would overwrite existing
ones. Let's restore a folder in OneDrive back to its original location. Since the folder already exists, we can
tell corso to with duplicate names as copies.
<Tabs groupId="os">
<TabItem value="win" label="Powershell">
```powershell
# Restore a folder to its original location
.\corso restore onedrive --backup <id of your selected backup> `
--folder "/presentations/company_culture" `
--destination "/" `
--collisions copy
```
</TabItem>
<TabItem value="unix" label="Linux/macOS">
```bash
# Restore a folder to its original location
./corso restore onedrive --backup <id of your selected backup> \
--folder "/presentations/company_culture" \
--destination "/" \
--collisions copy
```
</TabItem>
<TabItem value="docker" label="Docker">
<CodeBlock language="bash">{
`# Restore a folder to its original location
docker run --env-file $HOME/.corso/corso.env \\
--volume $HOME/.corso:/app/corso ghcr.io/alcionai/corso:${Version()} \\
restore exchange --backup <id of your selected backup> \\
--email <email message ID> --folder '/presentations/company_culture' \\
--destination '/' --collisions copy`
}</CodeBlock>
</TabItem>
</Tabs>
A confirmation of the recovered files will be shown and those files will appear back in their original folder.
