Backups
DYPAI takes care of database backups for you on paid plans. There's nothing to schedule and no cron to set up: a fresh snapshot is captured daily, and you can download any recent one whenever you need it.
Backups are a paid-plan feature
The Free plan has no automatic backups. To get daily backups, upgrade to Pro. On Free, take your own copies by exporting tables from the data view (CSV / JSON / SQL).
Where to find them
Open your project, go to the Database tab, and select the Backups section. You'll see a list of recent backups with the date each one was taken.
Downloading a backup
Each backup has a Download action. Click it to save the snapshot to your machine — that's your copy to keep, archive, or re-import.
There's no in-app restore
DYPAI does not have a one-click "restore" button. Recovery is manual: download the backup you want and re-import the parts you need with the SQL editor (run the INSERT statements) or by asking your AI to load them. For a full rebuild, you can replay an entire SQL dump.
Retention
Backups are kept for a single global window of roughly 7 days (configured at the platform level). This window is not tiered by plan — every paid project gets the same retention. If you need a copy beyond that window, download it before it rolls off and store it yourself.
Good habits
Download before risky changes
Before a big migration or a bulk delete, grab the latest backup so you have a known-good copy to fall back on.
Archive what matters long-term
Retention is ~7 days. For anything you need to keep longer (a monthly snapshot, an audit copy), download it and store it somewhere durable.
Test your re-import path
The first time you'll want a restore is a bad time to learn the steps. Try downloading a backup and re-importing a single table so the process isn't new under pressure.
