How to restore a backup

You can restore your environments to a previous point in time using the restore backup feature.

When backup is restored, the data and code from the backup are written to the target environment to ensure a previous consistent working state of the project.

Note that the latest code in your repository may have been modified in such a way that it no longer works correctly with the old, restored data.

1. List backups:
   

   platform backups

2. Restore backup:
   - To the same environment:
   

   platform backup:restore BACKUP_ID

   - To a different environment:
   

   platform backup:restore --target=TARGET_BRANCH_NAME BACKUP_ID
