Working with Backups
Spanning Backup for Salesforce runs an automated backup each day. The initial backup of your Salesforce data takes the longest to complete since it includes all of the data in your account. After the initial backup is completed, subsequent daily backups are much faster since they include only new and changed data.
As backups run, see these topics to monitor and manage these daily backups:
- Managing the automated backup schedule to view the average duration of your last 8 backups and make changes to the automated schedule if needed.
- Running a backup to run a manual backup on demand.
- Checking backup status to view the status of your last 30 backups and drill down to review and fix issues as needed.
- Spanning's REST API call limit to review the daily API call limit that can be used by the backup process and make adjustments if needed.
