Creating Backups

Manual Backup

Optional name: Add backup_name:My Backup to customize the name.

Component Selection

You can backup:

  • All Components - Everything in one backup
  • Individual Components - Choose specific items (roles, channels, etc.)

Backup Limits

  • 1 backup per server per user
  • New backups overwrite old ones for the same server
  • Compressed storage (minimal database load)

Restoring Backups

Prerequisites

Bot must have:
  • Highest role in server hierarchy
  • Administrator permission
These are required for successful restoration.

Restoration Process

  1. Run /backup load backup_id
  2. Select components to restore
  3. Review actions (deletions + creations)
  4. Confirm restoration
  5. Wait for completion (progress tracked)

What Happens During Restoration

Destructive Actions:

  • Existing roles → Deleted
  • Existing channels → Deleted
  • Existing emojis/stickers → Deleted
  • Existing threads → Archived

Then:

  • Selected backup components → Created/Restored
This cannot be undone. Always confirm you're restoring the correct backup.
