Every application deployed with One Click Apps has its data volumes backed up automatically.

​
What is backed up

The persistent volumes of the application, meaning the data it stores: databases, uploaded files, configuration written at runtime. The container images are not backed up: they are pulled again on demand.
Backups are stored on the instance itself. They protect you from a mistake inside an application, not from the loss of the instance. For that, use the VPS backup option or a snapshot.

​
Run a backup now

Open the application, go to the Backups tab and select Back up now on the volume you want to save. The task runs in the background and the new archive appears in the list once it finishes.

​
Restore

1

Choose an archive

In the Backups tab, find the volume and the date you want to restore.
2

Start the restore

Select Restore, then confirm.
3

Wait for the application to come back

The application is stopped, the volume is replaced with the content of the archive, then the application starts again. Expect a short interruption.
Restoring replaces the whole content of the volume. Anything written after the archive was taken is lost.
