Set up scheduled exports

Automate regular exports of your backed-up Shopify data to email or Google Drive on a weekly or monthly basis.

Recover stores your data in secure backup storage — that's your primary backup. Scheduled exports create regular additional copies on your local drive or Google Drive, giving you an extra layer of protection following the 3-2-1 backup rule (three copies of your data, on two different storage types, with one stored offsite).

Configure a scheduled export

Prerequisites

  • A Pro plan or higher
  • At least one completed backup
  • A Google account with available Drive storage (for Google Drive delivery)
