  • Secure data

    • Have peace of mind, knowing that your data never leaves your Jira site. It is saved within a secured project that is only visible to your Jira administrators.

      • On the free Jira plan, the permission scheme cannot be edited, so the project is not hidden from view.

    • Always have a copy of your project at intervals e.g. 10mins, 30mins, 1 hour, daily etc

    • Unintentional project deletion will be a thing of the past, as you can recover the data

      • Please note depending on how long you wait before triggering a restore, attachment data might be still available

    • Back up your entire Jira Cloud site at intervals according to your needs.

      • Each backup task will be retained only for 14 days.

      • Have multiple backup snapshots at your disposal.

        • Please note that depending on your Jira site size, these backups maybe overwritten.

  • Audit your Jira projects by having a routine export, catalogued by timestamp so you can go back and check what changes happened to a project on a particular day or hour.

  • Get notified once your export is ready

    • Configure your settings and the app will inform you once your export is ready. You will receive a @mention and an email notification (depending on your settings)

  • Download your data at your convenience

    • Download your exported file at your convenience

    • Each download is sorted in descending order and by date, so you can revisit any snapshot of your backups

  • No end-user data is stored, retained or used by the app

  • All data processed are purged from the system immediately after they are uploaded to your Jira site.
