Backup and restore your data

Restore a workspace from a saved point in time and understand how workspace backups work.

Backups is currently in BETA. More functionality and retention details will follow soon.

Use Backups to restore a workspace from a saved point in time. Restore it as a new workspace or overwrite the current workspace.

Keep the following in mind:

• Your workspace is backed up automatically once each night. You cannot trigger backups manually.
• You must be a workspace admin to restore a backup.
• Each available backup shows its date, save time, and file size.
• The Backups screen shows backups within your plan's retention period.

Replacing a workspace restores it to the selected backup. Changes made after that backup are removed.
