[CosmosDB] Be able to manage Backup and Restore with Portal and APIs
Please provide the ability to manage backup and restore on our own.
Restore through support is not clear and inconvenient.
It turned out restore is only available through paid support plan.
This document https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cosmos-db/online-backup-and-restore#restoring-a-database-from-an-online-backup does not say it in any word.
The situation made our customer extremely unhappy.

Thank you for adding this feature! Looks like either the Periodic or Continuous backup option must be picked when creating the Cosmos DB account. Can the Backup & Restore blade (configuration) be further enhanced such that an existing account can be switched from Periodic to Continuous?

Is the cosmos DB PITR available for preview and how to sign up for it?

Please can you mention the process to participate in the private preview portal.

Like Azure SQL, we would like the ability to specify in the portal the retention period for PIT backups (example: PITR for 7 day period) and long term retention (full backups weekly retained for 5 weeks).

Hi Min. There is a private preview portal you can use instead. Please contact support for access.
Thanks.

This is SO needed, it's VERY annoying and so not efficient to call MS support every time for restoring db

I was informed that there is a preview planned for june this year. I have no official confirmation though. As an alternative, there is a Proof of Concept available for building something similar: https://github.com/abinav2307/azure-cosmosdb-custom-pointInTimeRestore

Also interested in this feature, we are unable to manage this ourselves and must rely on support.

Also interested in ETA on this feature. This is a huge need before being able to offer Cosmos DB for our enterprise customers.

It would be good to understand what the ETA is for this feature - has it moved any further along the planning process in the year since the last update?
