Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 REST API wrapper for Python

Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 Python API Wrapper

Python package for interacting with the Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 REST API

This project is an independent, open source Python client for the Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 REST API. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Veeam Software.

Supported Versions

VB365 Version	API Version	Supported
8.0.2.159	v8	✅
7.0.0.2911	v7	✅
6.0.0.367	v6	✅
< 6.0.0.367	< v6	❌

How to support new API versions

1. Download the OpenAPI schema into openapi_schemas
2. Install the openapi-python-client package
3. Run python fix_openapi.py .\openapi_schemas\vb365_rest_{version}.json .\openapi_schemas\vb365_rest_{version}_fixed.json
4. Run openapi-python-client generate --path ".\openapi_schemas\vb365_rest_{version}_fixed.json" --output-path ".\veeam_365" --overwrite
5. Fix any warnings/errors
6. Rename the folder to match the API version (i.e., v8)
7. Add the version mapping to versions.py
8. Write pytest tests
9. If an older API has been deprecated, delete its folder, json, and version.py entry, then update the supported versions section of the readme

Install

From PyPi

pip install veeam-365

From Source

Clone the repository and install dependencies:

git clone https://github.com/Cenvora/veeam-365.git
cd veeam-365
pip install -e .

Usage

Recommended Usage (Smart Client)

The VeeamClient handles:

• API version routing
• Authentication
• Token refresh
• Async calls
• Operation discovery

Each packaged version can be called independently through separate imports, but this is the recommended way to use this library.

Create a client and connect

import asyncio
from veeam_365.client import VeeamClient

async def main():
    vc = VeeamClient(
        host="https://vb365.example.com:4443",
        username="administrator",
        password="SuperSecretPassword",
        verify_ssl=False,
        api_version="v8",
        disable_antiforgery_token=True
    )

    await vc.connect()

    # use the client...

    await vc.close()

asyncio.run(main())

Optional Parameters:

• verify_ssl (bool, default: True): Enable/disable SSL certificate verification
• disable_antiforgery_token (bool, default: True): Disable antiforgery token requirement. Set to True for programmatic/API clients (recommended). Set to False only if using browser-based authentication with cookies.

Call an API endpoint (async)

repos = await vc.call(
  vc.api("backup_repository").backup_repository_get_repositories
)

# repos is a PageOfRESTBackupRepository model
for repo in repos.data or []:
  print(repo.name)

Call any endpoint

Operations map directly to the OpenAPI layout:

api/
└── backup_repository/
  └── backup_repository_get_repositories.py

Call it like this:

await vc.call(
    vc.api("backup_repository").backup_repository_get_repositories
)

Or explicity:

await vc.call(
    vc.api("backup_repository.backup_repository_get_repositories")
)

Pagination example

result = await vc.call(
  vc.api("backup_repository").backup_repository_get_repositories,
    limit=50,
    offset=0,
)

Close the client

await vc.close()
