A backup corresponds to a picture of a Collibra Data Intelligence Platform environment at a certain point in time. This picture consists of all application data, the operating model, assets, comments, and so on. You can restore a backup at a later point in time.
You can specify which aspects of the application data to include in the backup and again during the restore.
Important When you create a backup, you have the option to include data, meaning all of the data in your Collibra environment related to communities, domains, assets, users, operating models and so on. When you restore a backup that includes data, all new data in your environment that was imported or otherwise created after the backup was created is irrevocably lost.
