Spanning Backup for Salesforce Release Notes

Enhancements

This release includes maintenance fixes and enhancements:

• Restore – If fields cannot be restored due to Salesforce rules (e.g., the fields are non-creatable or non-updatable), Spanning now skips these fields rather than failing the restore. Skipped fields can be viewed in the Activity log:
  
  

• Applied security updates.

This release includes these enhancements:

• Report Export – Extended the export's timeout interval to accommodate larger reports.
  

• Backup – Improved error handling to prevent ongoing backup failures in cases where a "bad" API response was received. With this change, the failed backup is now deleted to prevent subsequent failures.

NEW Disable Salesforce triggers and workflows during restore

When restoring object data to your production or sandbox environment, you can now opt to disable automated triggers and workflows. Use this option to prevent the target Salesforce environment from running outdated automations, such as auto-updates to documents and email notifications.

To disable the triggers and workflows, simply check the Disable Apex triggers, flows and workflows box on the Restore Settings page, then click Confirm. Triggers and workflows are disabled during the restore only. All triggers and workflows are automatically re-enabled after restore session.

This release includes this Metadata Backup enhancement: Data size is now handled dynamically to accommodate larger backups.
