daagwerk Documentation Backup, restore & data export

Chapter 12

Backup, restore & data export

Automatic backups, manual backups, restore, WebDAV target and the full self-service data export.

Backup, restore & data export

What it is

daagwerk backs up every tenant automatically and allows manual backups, restore and a full data export at any time. Management is under System → Backups (admin).

Automatic backups

  • Daily compressed snapshot per tenant, tenant-isolated.
  • 28 days retention (rolling).
  • In the list you see all backups with date and size.

Manual backup & download

  • Backup now creates a backup immediately.
  • Download downloads a backup as a file.

Restore

  1. Select a backup and Restore.
  2. Choose full or up to a date (only transactional data is filtered; structure stays complete).
  3. Confirm.

Before every restore, daagwerk automatically creates a safety backup – the step is reversible at any time.

WebDAV backup target

At the top of the Backups page you can optionally set up a WebDAV target (URL, user, password) where backups are additionally stored. With Test connection you verify the credentials.

The WebDAV password is only stored, never returned; an empty password field means “do not change”.

Self-service data export

Via the data export you download all of your tenant’s data as a ZIP (JSON + CSV) – for portability, archiving or your own analyses.

Tips & pitfalls

  • Test the WebDAV target once with “Test connection” before you rely on it.
  • For a complete move/backup outside daagwerk, the ZIP export is the fastest way.
