To restore from a backup:

Select Settings > Data management.
Select Backup and restore.
In the Backup policy table, find the policy that includes the product you want to restore. Select View details.
The recent backups for the policy are listed. We recommend you restore only COMPLETE backups, although INCOMPLETE backups can also be restored. Choose a backup and select Restore.
If the backup includes attachments, choose whether you want to restore the attachments, then select Next.
Select where to restore the product data to, then select Next. The destination can't have backup or restore operation already in progress. For Jira, the destination has to be empty. For Confluence, the destination doesn’t have to be empty, but spaces matching the spaces in the backup are skipped.
Review the data to restore, then select Restore.
