Check the health of your backups
New Backup and Restore Experience Open Beta: Enrolment Closed
New enrolment is now closed. Customers who have already used the feature in the open beta will continue to have access until general availability.
Backup and restore isn’t available in the Atlassian Government environment.
You can no longer store backups in Amazon S3 storage. Customers who've used S3 storage in the past can still use it.
Backup and restore processes are integral in protecting your data in case of a data loss event and meeting many companies' compliance requirements. To ensure the integrity and reliability of backups, you can check the health of your backups through automated restores.
When you enable automated restores, we’ll regularly create a secure, isolated sandbox named automated-restores-sandbox-reserved and restore your backups to this sandbox. After the restore, we’ll generate a report to help you assess the quality of your backups and delete the sandbox.
Do not use the sandboxes created during automated restores for any other purposes as this interferes with the restore operation.
Enable automated restores
You can enable this feature only if backup data is available for your organization.
To enable automated restores:
Go to admin.atlassian.com. Select your organization if you have more than one.
Select Data management > Backups.
Select More actions (⋯) > Opt into automated restores.
To disable automated restores, select More actions (⋯) > Opt out of automated restores.
View restores
All organization administrators will receive emails when a restore starts and completes.
You can view the details of each restore from the Restore tab on your Backups home page and assess the health of your backups.
