Sorry for all the questions!

I’m seeing Metallic Accounts in Azure Active Directory - Just wanted to know what these accounts are used for and can they be deleted without affecting anything.

They start with CVEXBackupAccount then some numbers but are my organizations email address?

Hi @EBL Admin,

No need to apologize! We’re here to help.

These accounts are service accounts that you noticed, are used for the backup and restore of public folders.

It’s recommended to keep these if you have public folders that require backup protection. If you don’t, you can remove them.

Thanks

We have public folders so I’ll leave them as is!
