Backups and trash
Restore deleted records from the trash, download earlier copies of your data, or roll a table back to an earlier point.
Restore deleted records from the trash, download earlier copies of your data, or roll a table back to an earlier point.
Open Dashboard → Backups & trash.
Deleted records go to the trash instead of disappearing, whether they were deleted in your app, by a backend function or in the Data tab. They stay there for 30 days and are then removed for good.
Records in the trash don't appear in your app, its API or exports.
Draftship copies all of your app's data automatically, at most once an hour while it's changing. You can also click Back up now before a big change. Backups are kept for 30 days.
Open a backup to see each table and its record count, then:
Restoring is safe to try: Draftship takes a fresh backup first (labelled Before restoring…), and records added since the backup move to the trash rather than being deleted.
Backups cover your app's data. For its code, use Version history.
