Why It Matters

How It Works

Backups in Runwork protect your workspace data with automatic snapshots. Unlike app versioning which tracks code changes, backups protect your actual data—the entities, records, and files that your apps create and manage.

Automatic snapshots run without manual intervention. Your workspace is regularly backed up according to your configuration—hourly, daily, or at custom intervals. You don't need to remember to back up before making changes or schedule maintenance windows. The system handles it continuously.

Point-in-time recovery lets you restore to any previous snapshot. Accidentally deleted important records? Restore from yesterday's backup. Need to recover from a bulk update gone wrong? Roll back to before the operation. You choose exactly which point in time to recover, and the restore process is straightforward.

Full data history means nothing is truly lost. Even after you delete records, they exist in backup snapshots. This isn't just about disaster recovery—it's about peace of mind. You can make aggressive decisions about data cleanup knowing the backup history has your back.

Export support lets you download backup data for offline storage or migration. Meeting compliance requirements that mandate offline archives? Export snapshots. Moving data to another system? Export and migrate. Your data is always accessible and portable.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often are backups created?
Backups run automatically at configurable intervals—hourly, daily, or custom schedules. You don't need to manually trigger backups or remember to back up before making changes. The system continuously protects your data according to your configuration.
How do I restore from a backup?
Select the snapshot you want to restore from in the backup management interface. You can browse available snapshots by date and time, preview what data existed at that point, then initiate a restore. The process restores your workspace data to that exact state.
Can I recover data that was permanently deleted?
Yes. Even after you delete records from your workspace, they exist in backup snapshots. If you need to recover accidentally deleted data, find a snapshot from before the deletion and restore from there. This provides a safety net for aggressive data cleanup.
Can I export backups for offline storage?
Yes. Download backup snapshots for offline storage, archival, or migration to other systems. This is useful for compliance requirements that mandate offline archives, or when you need to move data to external systems. Your data is always portable.
