[Mark Wiesenthal]

Hey,

does anyone know if the data of the Assets Plugin is also stored into the Jira side backup?

Best regards

Hello @Mark Wiesenthal

With Insight Assets Backup & Migration Add-on, you can schedule backup for object schemas using cron expression or basic scheduler. 

With the add-on, you can also restore the schema to the source cloud instance, or another cloud instance. Also, you can migrate Asset object schemas from data-center or server instances.

You can check more details in the article as well.

You can try the app and if you have any questions and/or suggestions, please let us know via this thread, by opening a ticket on our Service Desk and we can schedule a demo for the application.

Best Regards,

Oto

Hi @Mark Wiesenthal 

We are building out support for Assets within the Revyz Backup & Restore app for Jira, if you are interested, let me know, happy to share more on what we are building. 

As you may already know it is relatively easy to back up data in various formats be it XML - using the private API's that are used by the Atlassian UI or JSON using the public API's that Atlassian publishes. It is extremely hard to restore the data that has been backed-up.

As you know with XML based backup, when you restore data back, assuming it works (lot of dependencies on the volume of data being restored) you get all or nothing i.e. As an example lets say you took a backup on Dec 31st and you lost some data in between and today is Jan 5th. If you do an XML based restore, you will roll back all your data to Dec 31st anything that was added in between Dec 31st and Jan 5th is lost. 

In addition to the core capabilities of data backup, you also need to consider the following:

- Ability to catalog backup data

- Ability to search backup data

- Ability to restore back data in granular manner

In addition, security, compliance and transparency related capabilities.

The above and more is what we are building out for Assets.
