Initiate a restore activity

post
https://apis.druva.com/insync/endpoints/v1/restores

Creates a data restore request and provides the option to scan the data for malware or viruses before restoring to the desired location on the target device. You can either restore the user's data to the same device from which it was backed up or to a different device registered with inSync. You can restore the data ONLY from the most recent snapshot to the target device. You can initiate multiple restore activities, which may be consolidated into a single activity based on the inSync Client version; appropriate status is displayed for each activity.
