Data Backup API

The Data Backup API in Zoho CRM allows users with Administrator privileges to take complete backup of the CRM data, including attachments. The backed up data will be available as a CSV file in a downloadable ZIP file. You can choose to download the backup instantly or schedule it to take place at a specific time of your choice.

Key Features:

File Size Limit: The maximum size for the ZIP file is 1 GB. If the total data or attachment size exceeds this limit, multiple files will be created, each with a maximum size of 1 GB. You can retrieve the download URLs for these files using the Get the backup download URLs API.
Backup Frequency: The number of backups allowed for an organization is determined by the edition of Zoho CRM being used.

Profile Permission:

Only users with Administrator profile can access this feature.

• Schedule a backup : Set up regular backups at your preferred intervals.

• Get the backup download URLs :  Retrieve links to download your backed-up data.
