Check the health of your backups
Backup and restore isn’t available in the Atlassian Government environment.
Using Amazon S3 for storing backups is no longer available, except for customers who've used it in the past.
Backup and restore processes are integral in protecting your data in case of a data loss event and meeting many companies' compliance requirements. To help check the integrity and reliability of your backups, use automated restores.
Automated restores is an opt-in beta feature for Enterprise plans only.
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 and your organization is on an Enterprise plan.
To enable automated restores:
Go to Atlassian Administration. Select your organization if you have more than one.
Select Data management, then Backup and restore.
Select More actions (⋯), then Opt into automated restores.
To disable automated restores, select More actions (⋯), then 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.
