Why you still need your own backup
Good hosting keeps copies of everything to survive disasters. Your own backup protects you from the things a host can’t undo for you: a bad update, a deleted record, a mistake.
In short: download a full copy before every big change. On Project3000 the Download button gives you the code, files and a database dump that restores into any PostgreSQL, in one ZIP.
What a host’s backups are for
Project3000 keeps backups for disaster recovery: if something goes badly wrong in our systems, we can restore them. They are not a service for undoing changes in your app, and they may not include the last few minutes.
How to make your own
- Open your dashboard and choose Download on the app.
- Keep the ZIP somewhere safe: your computer and a cloud drive.
- Do it before every redeploy that changes how data is stored.
Your project folder is a backup of the code too. A Git repository makes it even easier to go back to an earlier version.
