Manage backup policy and stored data

Project settings control future backup runs. Recovery-point actions control data that has already been stored.

Change the backup schedule or retention

1. Open the ReviveDB dashboard and select the project.
2. Choose Settings on the project page.
3. Under Backup policy, change the retention period, backup window or timezone.
4. Choose Save. The new policy applies to future scheduled runs.

Change the data region

1. Open the project settings and find Data region.
2. Select the destination and save the change.
3. Check the next recovery point to confirm the selected region.

A region change applies only to new recovery points. Existing recovery points stay in their original region.

Delete one recovery point

1. Open Backup history and open the actions menu for the recovery point.
2. Choose Delete and review the deletion message.
3. Confirm the action. You can undo a normal deletion from the row until permanent removal starts.

Stop backups but keep recovery points

1. On the project page, select the database under Data sources.
2. Choose Pause.
3. Leave the project connected if you want to keep its existing recovery points available under their retention policy.

Delete a project and all its recovery data

1. Open the project settings and go to Danger zone.
2. Choose Delete project and read the list of data that will be removed.
3. Confirm only when you intend to remove the project connection, history and every managed backup object.
