I would like to backup only specific folders inside a VM, using the VSA. I do not want to backup the full VM and do selective file restore, because it is too long.
According to the documentation, it seems to be possible to backup only specific files/folders with the File Level Backup Type. So, I checked it in the subclient properties. But I cannot find a way to select the specific folders. What am I missing?

Yeah but you still have to faff about mounting the VMDK to get inside the folder structure and backup performance will suck. If you just want to do folder level backup, use the agent.

The VSA agent has file level backup mode. In that mode it allows filtering folders to backup only a subset of folders.
